Folding Utility Knife Opinel Serrated Violet 113, stainless steel blade, wooden handle

Opinel Serrated Violet 113 is a folding utility knife with a serrated stainless steel blade and a wooden handle. The compact, foldable design provides safe storage and easy transport. The serrated edge is intended to improve cutting performance on fibrous or crusty materials while the wooden handle offers a tactile grip and classic appearance. This model is suitable for everyday cutting tasks in the kitchen, workshop or on the go.

Advantages

The serrated stainless steel blade maintains a tooth profile that helps slice through bread crusts, rope, cardboard and other fibrous materials with less crushing. The folding mechanism reduces the risk of accidental cuts when the knife is not in use and makes the tool easy to carry. A wooden handle delivers a comfortable hold and natural temperature regulation when used in different environments. The knife’s compact dimensions combine portability with reliable cutting performance for light- to medium-duty tasks.

Suitable for

• Opening packages and cutting packing tape
• Slicing bread and other baked goods with a hard crust
• Cutting fibrous materials such as rope, twine and cardboard
• Light outdoor and camping tasks where a compact folding knife is needed
• Everyday workshop tasks and hobby projects

Key specifications

• Blade type: serrated stainless steel
• Handle material: wood
• Design: folding utility knife
• Intended use: general-purpose cutting for kitchen, workshop, travel and light outdoor activities
• Portability: compact when folded for safe storage and transport

How to use

Open the knife by unfolding the blade until it locks or reaches its full open position, taking care to keep fingers clear of the cutting edge. Use the serrated blade with a steady sawing motion on fibrous or crusty materials to achieve cleaner cuts; apply light, controlled pressure rather than forcing the blade. After use, fold the blade back into the handle for safe storage. Regular cleaning and drying of the blade and handle will help maintain performance and appearance.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, keep the folding mechanism free of dirt and debris and avoid using the knife on very hard materials that could damage the serrated teeth. Periodically wipe the stainless steel blade dry and oil moving parts lightly if the hinge shows stiffness. Store the knife folded and out of reach of children.
