How to use

To use the Opinel Colorama 04, unfold the blade from the handle until it locks in the open position or is held securely by the folding mechanism.

After use, fold the blade back into the handle until it is fully enclosed and attach to a keyring or store in a pocket. Regularly wipe the blade clean and dry to maintain performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the knife for light-duty tasks appropriate to its size and blade strength. Avoid heavy prying, cutting very hard materials, or using the knife as a screwdriver to prevent damage. Store the knife folded and dry; periodic cleaning and light oiling of the pivot area will help maintain smooth operation.
