Opinel, French Cutlery Mastery

The first Opinel knife was created in 1890 by Joseph Opinel in his family’s edge-tool workshop. Since then, the exceptional quality of these knives has led to Opinel's remarkable success. All production remains in France, in the small mountain town of Chambéry, where the brand prioritises employing locals and supporting the regional economy.

Craftsmanship and innovation are central to Opinel’s identity. The brand focuses on providing versatile knives for all needs, carefully selecting materials to ensure durability and performance. The steel is chosen based on each knife's specific use, and the wood for handles is sustainably sourced from managed forests in the Jura region, reinforcing their commitment to sustainability.
