Opinel Les Forgés 1890 3" Paring Knife
Precision Forged Paring Knife for Detail Work | French Craftsmanship in a Compact Form 🇫🇷🔪
The Opinel Les Forgés 1890 3" Paring Knife is designed for precision tasks where control matters most. Made in France, this knife is fully hot-forged from a single piece of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel, resulting in excellent strength, balance, and long-term durability.
Its short, pointed blade is ideal for peeling, trimming, and detailed prep work like slicing small fruits, removing stems, or cleaning proteins. The compact size allows for greater control in hand, making it one of the most frequently used tools in any kitchen.
The full tang construction provides a stable, balanced feel, while the stabilized beechwood handle offers a comfortable grip with improved water resistance. Designed as part of the Les Forgés 1890 collection, this knife reflects Opinel’s highest level of craftsmanship and attention to detail.
