Opinel No.117 Spreader Knife - Blue
Made-in-France spreader with a 2.6-inch flat stainless steel blade and varnished blue hornbeam handle
The Opinel No.117 Spreader is a compact table knife for spreading butter, jam, pâté, tapenade, soft cheese, and other soft foods. Its 6.5 cm wide, flat stainless steel blade gives you more surface than a conventional table knife for picking up and spreading, while the varnished blue hornbeam handle provides a comfortable grip.
Why Order from Design & Grace
Authorized Opinel retailer: Design & Grace sells genuine Opinel knives backed by the manufacturer's limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials or workmanship.
Made in France: The N°117 Blue Spreader is manufactured in France by Opinel.
Ships from Texas: Your spreader is carefully packed and shipped from our Texas facility.
A Wide Blade for Spreading
The 6.5 cm blade is broad and flat, giving you a useful surface for spreading butter across toast, smoothing soft cheese onto bread, or serving pâté and tapenade. Its blunt spreader profile is made for table and serving work rather than general cutting.
The compact format also makes the N°117 useful for breakfast, cheese boards, appetizers, and casual entertaining where a standard dinner knife is less effective at handling soft spreads.
Signature Features
6.5 cm / 2.6-inch blade: Provides a broad working surface for butter, jam, pâté, tapenade, and other soft spreads.
Wide, flat profile: Picks up and distributes soft foods more efficiently than a narrow table knife.
Martensitic stainless steel: Opinel specifies 55-57 HRC stainless steel with strong corrosion resistance and wear resistance.
Hornbeam handle: PEFC-certified hornbeam provides a smooth wooden grip with little visible grain, making it well suited to Opinel's colored finishes.
Varnished finish: Helps protect the wood handle from moisture and dirt during regular use.
Paysage blue: The blue finish belongs to Opinel's nature-inspired Paysage color collection.
Made in France: Manufactured by Opinel in France.
Built for Breakfast and the Cheese Board
The N°117 is purpose-built around spreading rather than slicing. Its wide stainless steel blade handles butter and preserves at breakfast, then works just as naturally with soft cheeses, pâté, and tapenade on an appetizer or cheese board.
From Our Founder
"The wide blade is what makes this more useful than an ordinary table knife. It picks up enough butter, soft cheese, or pâté to spread cleanly, and the blue hornbeam handle gives a very simple tool a little color without making it fussy."
Tony Boulton, Founder, Design & Grace
