Les Fines Lames Cigar Knife LE PETIT - Omnia Vanitas Solid Bronze

The Les Fines Lames Cigar Knife LE PETIT - Omnia Vanitas Solid Bronze is a French-made folding cigar knife from the LE PETIT collection, combining an Omnia Vanitas solid-bronze design with a 14C28N stainless-steel blade. The LE PETIT platform measures 115 mm closed and is designed to cut cigar caps up to 70 ring gauge, depending on cut depth.

LE PETIT Omnia Vanitas Solid Bronze Specifications

Solid Bronze Omnia Vanitas Design

The defining material on this LE PETIT edition is its solid-bronze Omnia Vanitas treatment, which separates it visually from wood, carbon-fiber, brass-inlay, and other versions of the same cigar-knife platform.

Omnia Vanitas uses skull imagery associated with the vanitas and memento mori tradition. On this model, that design language is part of the physical handle rather than a tobacco, cutting, or performance attribute, so it is best presented as a material-and-design distinction rather than a claim about cutting quality.

Buyers comparing decorative LE PETIT editions can also view the LE PETIT Brass Skulls, which uses a different skull-themed treatment within the same broader knife family.

14C28N Stainless-Steel LE PETIT Blade

The LE PETIT platform uses a 65 mm blade made from 14C28N stainless steel, a specification published directly by Les Fines Lames.

Its blade folds into the handle in the style of a Piedmont knife. Les Fines Lames incorporates an extended blade lever that assists one-handed opening, giving the product a different operating format from conventional double-guillotine cigar cutters.

The manufacturer lists a 115 mm closed length and 157 mm overall length for LE PETIT. Those measurements describe the knife platform more accurately than the existing copy's single approximate 11.5 cm dimension because they distinguish its folded and open configurations.

Cutting Cigars up to 70 Ring Gauge

Les Fines Lames states that LE PETIT can accommodate cigars up to 70 ring gauge, although maximum capacity depends on how much of the cap is being removed.

The built-in cutting aperture measures approximately 23 mm. According to the manufacturer, that opening can cut a 58-ring cigar across the full diameter, while larger cigars can be accommodated when only the cap is positioned within the cutting area.

This distinction matters for buyers choosing a cutter for larger cigars: “up to 70 ring gauge” describes practical cap-cutting capacity rather than a 70-ring full-diameter opening.

Made in France as Part of the LE PETIT Collection

Les Fines Lames identifies LE PETIT as made in France and associates its knife production with Thiers, France's historic cutlery center.

Omnia Vanitas Solid Bronze belongs to the broader LE PETIT collection alongside wood, metal, carbon-fiber, and decorative editions. Buyers who prefer the same Omnia Vanitas theme in another material can compare the Omnia Vanitas Sterling Silver.

For a less ornate metal treatment, the LE PETIT Brass Seigaiha keeps the same cigar-knife format with a different decorative direction.

Using and Carrying the LE PETIT Cigar Knife

The Omnia Vanitas Solid Bronze is suited to buyers who want a cigar cutter that also functions as a folding knife rather than a conventional guillotine-style accessory.

To cut a cigar, open the blade, position only the amount of cap you intend to remove within the aperture, and make a controlled cut. Because larger ring gauges depend on cap depth, there is no need to push the entire cigar diameter through the opening.

For storage and transport, keep the blade folded when not in use. TRP also carries a Les Fines Lames Leather Sheath for compatible LE PETIT knives.
