Opinel USA operates as the U.S. arm of Opinel, a knife and tool maker with roots dating to 1890 in the French Alps. Since 2016, the Chicago-based office has managed sales and distribution for the American market, reflecting a small, focused U.S. operation within the broader retail sector. The company sells a range of knives and related tools designed for outdoor use, food preparation, and everyday tasks. Opinel USA's product activities include launches and collaborations that broaden its lifestyle offerings, such as National Parks capsule knives supporting Leave No Trace and a table knife collection developed with Bernardaud. Recent developments include the May 2026 introduction of Sport Line knives aimed at outdoor environments, underscoring the brand's outdoor-focused positioning.
