Is Opinel Knife Maintenance Oil Food Safe?
Yes. The oil is completely plant-based and food safe, so there's no worry about harsh materials near your cutting tools or food prep surfaces.
Can I Use It on Carbon Steel and Wood Handles?
Yes – that's exactly what it's made for. Apply a few drops to a clean cloth and rub it on carbon steel blades to protect against corrosion, and use it to condition beech wood handles and cutting boards evenly.
How Long Should It Dry Before Closing a Folding Knife?
After oiling the blade, allow it to dry completely before folding it closed – typically a few minutes on the surface. Never close a folding knife with a wet, oiled blade.
How to Use
- Clean and dry your knife with a soft, dry cloth
- Apply a few drops of oil to a clean cloth
- Rub onto the blade; let folding knife blades dry fully before closing
- Condition wood handles with a lightly oiled cloth
