Folding Serrated Knife Opinel 113 — Opinel serrated blade, wooden handle

Opinel 113 is a folding serrated knife that combines a stainless-steel serrated blade with a wooden handle in a compact, foldable design. The serrated edge is shaped for reliable cutting of bread, fruit and other foods with hard crusts or skins, while the folding mechanism allows safe storage and easy transport for kitchen use, picnics and outdoor meals.

Advantages

The serrated stainless-steel blade maintains a tooth profile suited to slicing through crusty surfaces without excessive compression of soft interiors. The wooden handle provides a comfortable grip and a traditional appearance while keeping the overall weight low. The folding design protects the blade and reduces the risk of accidental contact when the knife is not in use. Materials and construction focus on practical durability for food preparation tasks.

Suitable for

• Cutting bread and rolls
• Slicing fruit with firm skins
• Preparing sandwiches outdoors
• Picnic and camping meal preparation

Key specifications

• Serrated stainless-steel blade for consistent slicing
• Folding mechanism for compact storage and transport
• Wooden handle shaped for ergonomic grip
• Lightweight construction suitable for portable use

How to use

Open the knife by unfolding the blade until it locks in the open position. Hold the handle with a secure grip and use a gentle sawing motion to slice bread, fruit or other foods with crusts or firm skins. After use, clean the blade with warm water and mild detergent, dry thoroughly, fold the blade back into the handle and store in a dry place. Regularly inspect the blade and handle for wear and re-sharpen the serrations with an appropriate tool if slicing performance decreases.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, ensure the blade is fully open and locked before cutting. Avoid using the serrated knife for heavy prying or cutting dense materials that could damage the edge. Maintain cleanliness and dryness of the wooden handle to extend lifespan, and sharpen the serrations with a tapered rod or specialist serration sharpener when needed.
