Saw blade Opinel No. 18 980184 compatible with Opinel saws

Opinel No. 18 replacement saw blade is a direct-fit spare blade designed for Opinel folding and fixed saw models that accept No. 18 blades. Manufactured to restore cutting performance, this blade is intended for woodworking and general outdoor or workshop tasks where a precise, replaceable cutting edge is required. The blade provides the same tooth profile and length as original No. 18 blades, allowing simple installation and reliable operation when paired with compatible Opinel handles.

Advantages

This Opinel No. 18 replacement blade restores the saw’s cutting capability without the need to replace the entire tool. It offers consistent tooth geometry for efficient cutting of wood and reduced clogging during sawing. The blade is easy to fit into compatible Opinel saw frames, enabling quick field or workshop replacement. Using an original-compatible blade maintains the intended cutting performance and handling of Opinel saws.

Suitable for

• Replacing worn or damaged blades in Opinel folding and fixed saws designed for No. 18 blades
• Cutting green or dry wood for pruning, camp tasks, and general woodworking
• Workshop projects where a compact, detachable saw blade is preferred

Key specifications

• Compatibility: fits Opinel saw models that accept No. 18 blades
• Material: hardened cutting steel suitable for woodcutting applications
• Tooth type: saw teeth ground for efficient wood removal and smooth cutting
• Form factor: straight blade designed for insertion into corresponding Opinel frames or handles

How to use

Ensure the saw frame or handle is compatible with No. 18 blades and that any locking mechanism is open before installing. Carefully remove the old blade by releasing the retaining screw or latch according to the saw model instructions, then slide the replacement blade into position and secure the fastener. Verify that the blade is firmly held and aligned before use. Use the saw with steady, even strokes, applying moderate pressure and allowing the teeth to do the cutting to avoid bending or premature wear.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the replacement blade for woodcutting tasks only and avoid cutting metal or materials outside its intended use. Keep the blade clean and dry after use, and store the saw with the blade retracted or covered to protect the teeth. Inspect the blade periodically for dulling or damage and replace it when cutting performance decreases.
