Le Thiers® – A True Symbol of French Cutlery
The Le Thiers® knife originates from a collaborative effort among the cutlers of the Thiers region to create a knife that represents the city of Thiers, the French capital of cutlery. Fontenille Pataud offers exclusive Le Thiers® models with blade-locking mechanisms, ensuring both comfort and safety.
Traditional French Craftsmanship for a Modern Era!
Once simple tools used for everyday tasks such as sharpening quills, pocket knives have evolved into decorative objects in their own right. Combining performance and elegance, they captivate both knife collectors and everyday users.The city of Thiers, located in Auvergne, boasts a rich medieval heritage and proudly represents six centuries of cutlery craftsmanship. Also known as "The Cutlery City", Thiers has a long history of knife-making, with street names such as "Rue des Forgerons" (Blacksmiths' Street) and "Rue de la Coutellerie" (Cutlery Street) reflecting its artisanal traditions. The Le Thiers® pocket knife is not just a tribute to this historic city—it is a masterpiece of artisanal excellence, with every detail from the blade to the handle carefully crafted to perfection.
