Le Thiers®

The Thiers® knife originates from a collaborative effort among cutlers in the Thiers region to create the knife representing the city of Thiers, the French capital of cutlery. Fontenille Pataud offers exclusive models of Le Thiers® knives with blade locking for your comfort and safety. Experience traditional French pocket knife craftsmanship in the modern era!

Once merely practical tools for tasks like sharpening quills, pocket knives are now decorative objects in their own right. Combining performance and elegance, they delight both knife collectors and users alike. The city of Thiers, nestled in the medieval charm of Auvergne, proudly boasts six centuries of cutlery history. Nicknamed "The Cutlery City" due to its significant knife-related activity, Thiers features streets named after its crafts, such as "Rue des Forgerons" (Blacksmiths' Street) and "Rue de la Coutellerie" (Cutlery Street). The Le Thiers pocket knife not only embodies the essence of this city but also showcases meticulous craftsmanship, from blade to handle, with carefully sculpted lines!
