Bread Knife No. 116
Crafted in France, Opinel's No. 116 Bread Knife is a kitchen essential designed for daily use. Its gently curved stainless steel blade glides through crusty baguettes, sourdough boules, or your rustic home-baked loaf. The beechwood handle offers comfort, balance, and a touch of understated charm — a nod to the brand’s heritage of blending functional design with everyday utility.
An Opinel knife has become emblematic of French culture — Pablo Picasso famously used one as a sculpting tool. Today, Opinel is recognized in the Victoria & Albert Museum’s collection of the 100 most iconic designs, alongside the Porsche 911 and the Rolex watch.
