Opinel knives are designed to stand the test of time; some carry Opinel knives handed down from parents and grandparents. Follow a few simple instructions to ensure your knife lasts for years to come.

You should...

Hand-wash or wipe clean your blade after each use

Wipe the blade dry

Store in a dry place and keep out of damp conditions

Expect the wooden handle to swell or contract slightly with use; wood is a living material that can be affected by humidity and atmospheric conditions. If your blade feels stuck, use the “Opinel knock” — rapping the end of the knife on a hard surface — to loosen the blade slightly

Grease the metal parts, including the Virobloc locking mechanism, on a regular basis

Use a whetstone or other fine-grain natural stone to sharpen your blade. Make sure the blade is dry and clean, and hold the sharpening stone at an approximately 20-degree angle from the blade while sharpening

 

You should NOT...

Put your knife in the dishwasher

Leave corrosive materials (like acidic foods) on your blade for extended periods of time

Use bleach or chlorine to clean your knife

Leave your knife in wet or damp conditions
