Joseph Opinel designed his first wood handle folding knife in 1890. In the corner of his workshop, he created a tool that is as robust and functional as it is simple and beautiful. Since then, the name Opinel has become synonymous with razor-sharp EDC folding knives featuring stainless or carbon steel blades, and wood handles from beech, walnut, oak, and olive wood.
