Features of Opinel's Cheese Knives
Premium Materials
Craftsmanship is at the heart of Opinel’s philosophy, and our cheese knives are no different. Each knife is meticulously crafted from high-quality materials, including durable stainless steel and beautifully finished wood. Stainless steel blades ensure longevity and resistance to corrosion, while the wooden handles provide a comfortable grip that feels natural in your hand. This combination of materials not only enhances performance but also adds a touch of elegance to your cheese board.
Benefits of Using Opinel Cheese Knives
Enhanced Cheese Experience
Using the right knife can significantly elevate your cheese tasting experience. Different types of cheese require different cutting techniques, and our cheese knives are designed with this in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What knives are best for cutting cheese?
When it comes to cutting cheese, the best knives are those specifically designed for the task. Soft cheeses require a knife with a wide, flat blade, while hard cheeses benefit from a serrated edge. The Cheese Knife in Opinel's Cheese Knife and Fork set serves dual purpose in preparing hard and soft cheese.
Do cheese knives need to be sharpened?
Yes, cheese knives do require maintenance to keep them in optimal condition. While stainless steel blades are resistant to dulling, regular use can still lead to a need for sharpening. It’s advisable to use a honing steel to maintain the edge of your cheese knives.
What is the best cheese knife for soft cheeses?
For soft cheeses, a knife with a wide, flat blade is ideal. This design allows for smooth slicing without crushing the cheese. Opinel’s cheese knives are crafted with this in mind, ensuring that you can enjoy your favourite soft cheeses without compromising their texture.
How do I care for my cheese knives?
Caring for your cheese knives is essential for maintaining their performance and longevity. After each use, wash them by hand with mild soap and warm water, avoiding the dishwasher. Dry them immediately to prevent moisture damage, and store them in a dry place to keep the blades sharp and the handles in pristine condition.
