Opinel Pocket Knives

Home | Opinel Pocket Knives

In 1890, Joseph Opinel turned 18 and worked in the family workshop. With a passion for new machines and innovative technologies, he built his own camera and soon became the photographer for weddings and special events in his area. Led by his passion for machinery and the manufacturing process, he decided to invent an object which he could manufacture using modern technology. Against his father's wishes, he spent most of his free time refining the shape and manufacturing of a small pocket knife: the Opinel No.08 was born!

Opinel has continued to contribute to the legacy of traditional French knifemaking, and over the last 100 years, the design of the classic Opinel pocket knife has remained largely unchanged. The blades are stamped, heat treated, ground and polished to their unique profile and smooth cutting feel. The iconic ring lock provides safety in keeping the blade secure during storage or while in use.
