Miracles on hinges
Perhaps the main feature of this knife is the folding design. Blade 120 mm long in a few movements hides in the handle - convenient for transportation in a pocket or bag. This is probably one of the longest folding knives, especially those designed for fishermen. The blade is fixed with a viroblock lock (the rotary mechanism simply physically blocks the blade), which is recognized as one of the most reliable in the world. However this is not a classic folding knife. It is not recommended to open it with one hand and use it in everyday affairs - it will quickly break and become unusable.
Designed specifically for fillets
The long, thin, narrow and very sharp blade is the best for separating from the carcass and cutting the fillets. The blade, of course, is not afraid of rust, but other tasks are beyond its power. Actually, even the manufacturer himself emphasizes that OPINEL Effilts 12 is a fillet knife. So its best use is in cutting soft meat, for example, for transportation or cooking.
It even looks like a fish
The handle looks interesting. Wide near the blade, it tapers towards the end and has a fairly strong bend. This shape provides a comfortable grip and the possibility of a power cut, which is important when processing meat. But the handle is made of wood (albeit as unusual as bubinga), without any notches, guards or stoppers. And this is not very good, because. slips quite strongly in the hands, and when cutting away from oneself, the hand can jump off onto the blade.
