The Le Thiers pocket knife is the most recent and smallest addition to the "Thiers series" offered by Fontenille Pataud. It is compact enough to be carried in a front pocket or a purse.
This knife, Le Thiers Pocket 10 cm, is handcrafted in Thiers, France, and certified by the "Coute de Tie" guild, which attests to the authenticity of the design.
The name "Le Thiers ® Nature" by Fontenille Pataud pays tribute to the city of Thiers, which has been a center for French knives and cutlery for centuries. The knife offers a good balance between the blade and the handle thanks to its special forged spring. A groove in the back of the spring allows the blade to fold in. Additionally, it provides a secure locking blade, a smooth mechanism, and a solid blade stop to protect the blade's edge.
Technical aspects:A Teflon-assisted lock-back system provides smooth, easy opening and closing. This knife also features a solid, hardened blade stop to help prevent the blade's edge from contacting the inner area of the spring.
Shopping for a unique pocket knife not only holds the promise of ownership but the excitement of finally beholding an item admired through a screen. However, all too often, what was envisioned and what is unboxed bear a startling, sometimes painful discrepancy.
You will receive the actual folding knife shown in the photos.
