For over 130 years Opinel has been crafting knives and tools in the heart of the French Alps. Much like Joseph Opinel did from his workshop in 1890, today we still manufacture Opinel products from our factory in Chambery, France.

Perrine Honoré

Honoré‘s festive and colorful aesthetic builds a critical universe where madness and spontaneity prevail, much like in nature. Exploring a global and colorful visual style that sits somewhere between abstract and figurative, her design for the No.08 Artist Limited Edition IV Nature reveals a variety of natural elements. The lively, organic composition adds a playful element to the knife.

MioSHe

Honoring nature in his design for the No.08 Artist Limited Edition IV Nature knife, MioSHe created a silhouette that brings to mind "Vrikshasana", the yogic tree pose. Based loosely on Selene, goddess of the full moon, or perhaps Demeter goddess of agriculture and harvests, the strength of her posture transforms her into a fruit tree.

Rommy González

With her design for the No.08 Artist Limited Edition IV Nature, González presents us with an inspired expression of nature, showcasing the complex forms of fungi. A combination of astonishing beauty and exquisite flavors that delight our senses, the colorful artwork invites us to open our perception and connect with nature.
