Opinel Sales FAQ

When is the best time to buy Opinel knives on sale?

The best times to find deals are Black Friday and Cyber Monday (late November), which are among Opinel's biggest sale events globally. You'll also find good promotions during Father's Day (mid-June) when they feature specialty knives and gift guides.

For EU customers, look for the year-round kitchen knife offers on Intempora and Les Forgés 1890 collections. US shoppers can catch Mother's Day sales in early May with savings on small kitchen knives and No.06 folding knives.

Does Opinel have Black Friday or Cyber Monday sales?

Yes! Opinel runs Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotions across multiple regions including the US, Australia, and Europe. Past deals have included special offers like free engraving on select knives and significant savings on premium French-made products.

These are considered some of the biggest sale events of the year for Opinel, so it's worth waiting if you're planning a larger purchase or stocking up on gifts.

3

What is Opinel's warranty policy?

Opinel offers a limited lifetime warranty on all their products. This covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship, and they'll exchange affected items.

Note: The warranty doesn't cover normal wear and tear, improper use, or damage from taking apart or modifying the knife. Opinel also offers knife sharpening and repair services to extend the life of your tools.

Can I return an Opinel knife if I'm not satisfied?

Yes. Opinel has a 30-day return policy across most markets. Items must be unused, in original condition, and in their original packaging to qualify for exchange, store credit, or refund.

Important exceptions: personalized or engraved items cannot be returned unless there was a mistake on Opinel's part. The US site extends this to January 15 for orders placed between November 1 and December 31 (holiday gift returns), but engraved items are still not returnable.

How much does Opinel engraving cost?

Opinel's laser engraving service starts at €6 (approximately $6-7 USD) per knife. You can personalize the handle or blade with up to 20 characters – perfect for names, dates, or short messages.

During special events like Father's Day, Opinel sometimes offers free engraving promotions. Keep in mind that engraved items are final sale and cannot be returned, so double-check your spelling before placing the order.

What's the typical price range for Opinel knives?

Opinel pocket knives typically range from $10-40 USD depending on size, handle material, and blade type. Classic carbon or stainless steel models are more affordable, while luxury wood handles and special editions cost more.

Kitchen knives run $30-100+ USD for individual pieces, with premium lines like Les Forgés 1890 reaching higher price points.
