Opinel 002289 FORGES 1890 Filleting knife 18 cm

The Les Forgés 1890 kitchen knives by Opinel embody the high quality of French knife craftsmanship. With the series designed by the Big-Game studio, Opinel offers a collection of forged kitchen knives that will impress even the most discerning customers. It is inspired by the work and personality of two-Michelin-star chef Jean Sulpice, who runs the Auberge de Père Bise in Talloires by Lake Annecy. The knives, forged from X50CrMoV15 stainless steel with a Rockwell hardness of 56-57 HRC, are characterized by their robustness, balance, durability, and cutting quality. The handle, made from stabilized beech wood with its ergonomic profile, pays homage to the traditional Opinel pocket knife and offers remarkable grip and handling properties. The filleting knife, primarily used for filleting fish, can also be employed in meat preparation for removing skin or sinews, as well as for slicing thin pieces. The 18 cm long, flexible blade extends all the way to the end of the handle, providing excellent stability and balance, just like all models in the Les Forgés 1890 series.
