To ensure the longevity, safety, and performance of your Opinel No.7 Junior Knife, follow these care guidelines:

Cleaning & Maintenance:

• Handwash only – Do not put the knife in the dishwasher, as high heat and moisture can damage the blade and wooden handle.
• Clean the blade with warm water and mild soap, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth to prevent rust or corrosion.
• Avoid soaking the knife in water for long periods, as it may weaken the handle and locking mechanism.

Blade Care:

• Regularly sharpen the blade with a sharpening stone to maintain its cutting edge.
• To prevent rust, apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil on the blade, especially after exposure to moisture.
• Store the knife in a dry place when not in use to avoid oxidation.

Handle & Virobloc Lock Care:

• The wooden handle should be occasionally treated with food-safe oil or wax to maintain its finish and prevent drying or cracking.
• If the Virobloc locking ring becomes stiff, apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
• Keep the locking mechanism free from dirt and debris to ensure safe and easy use.
