Collaboration based on unique know-how.
The collaboration between OPINEL and HEXAGONE is a celebration of know-how. Two brands that highlight the excellence of French artisanal know-how.
OPINEL: A tradition of cutlery
Since its creation in 1890 by Joseph Opinel, the OPINEL brand has established itself as an essential global reference in the field of cutlery. Recognizable by their design remained unchanged (with the five components: the handle, the blade, the fixed ferrule, the rivet and the rotating ferrule), OPINEL knives are synonymous with quality, durability and authenticity. Each knife is designed with meticulous attention to detail within the factory in Chambéry, perpetuating an artisanal tradition passed down from generation to generation.
HEXAGONE: The French brazier
In the outdoor kitchen market, HEXAGONE clearly stands out for its distinctive shape and commitment to craftsmanship. Known for its attention to detail, innovative design and unique quality, HEXAGONE is the key player in French fire pits. With HEXAGONE, outdoor cooking becomes a reality in all seasons, 365 days a year. May every moment spent around the fire pit be a celebration of gastronomy and design, where visual and taste pleasures meet to create unforgettable memories.
A collaboration to please
This collaboration took shape with the launch of the Barbecue set from OPINEL, including three utensils made in France from virtuous local materials dedicated to outdoor cooking : the No. 12 B knife equipped with a bottle opener at the end of the handle, the spatula + which fits into the handle of the knife, and the XL pliers with its grill-lifting slot at the heel.
To mark the start of this collaboration, the two brands launched a competition on their social networks, offering the chance to win a HEXAGONE brazier and a Barbecue set OPINEL. This competition helped to highlight this association, by creating excitement around the products and celebrating the art of outdoor cooking.
A series of videos to promote know-how
In 2025, OPINEL and HEXAGONE plan to highlight their partnership through a series of videos. They will offer an exclusive look at the manufacturing processes of OPINEL knives and HEXAGONE braziers. They will highlight the artisanal techniques, materials used, and attention to detail that make these two brands famous.
A tribute to French terroir
This collaboration is a tribute to the shared values of both brands: respect for French terroir, the importance of craftsmanship, and the desire to pass on a cultural and technical heritage. By highlighting local materials and traditional manufacturing methods, OPINEL and HEXAGONE celebrate the richness of French artisanal heritage.
