Opinel No. 6 Peeler

While designed with portability in mind, the Opinel No. 6 is a fully functional peeler that works perfectly in a home kitchen. Its compact size makes it especially useful for small kitchens or for those who prefer a minimalist toolset.

To preserve the wood, avoid soaking the handle in water or putting it in the dishwasher. Simply wipe it clean with a damp cloth and dry it immediately after use. If the wood feels dry over time, you can apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil.

Yes, it utilizes Opinel's signature Virobloc safety ring. Once you rotate the ring, the blade locks firmly in the open position, ensuring it won't accidentally close while you are peeling.

The blade is sharp and efficient for standard produce like potatoes, carrots, and apples. While it handles firm vegetables well, it is best suited for standard peeling tasks rather than heavy-duty industrial prep.

Yes, the blade design is symmetrical, making it comfortable and effective for both left-handed and right-handed users.
