The blade is not sharpened to cut, but the grind tapers toward the point to let the blade slip between shells. The grind is an almost imperceptibly convex grind to maximize the blade's resistance against twisting and also to reflect light in a very beautiful way. The engineering of this knife is similar to that of the other Opinel folders and thus the blade can be locked in both the open and closed positions by turning the iconic Virobloc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wood handle is varnished Padouk.
