Fontenille Pataud Steak Knives
Table Specialties
WE ARE TRUSTED BY SOME OF THE WORLD'S BEST CORPORATIONS Offer your employees, customers or business partners a memorable and useful gift.
This knife features a clever locking blade system on top of the handle. Easy and comfortable to use, users will find unique ways to fold it. Like all other Corsican knives offered by Fontenille Pataud, this knife was created in collaboration with the Zuria family of Bonifacio Corsica.
Consider this: This knife is handmade in Europe's capital of cutlery, "Thiers." The “Gilles®” Fontenille Pataud collection of knives are considered by many to be some of the best French pocket knives money can buy. All folding Knives offered by Gilles are made entirely by a single craftsman, ensuring pride in ownership of the final piece. 100% Made in France
Because we realize those questions will be asked!
Does the Lock-Top feel "in the way" when using the knife?
No, quite the contrary; here is why. The lock-top is slightly curved to feel secure when pressed by the thumb. Additionally, the filling decoration on each side provides additional grip.
What is the best technique to unlock the blade?
Although there are many ways to pull up the Lock-Top we found that simply sliding the thumbnail under the gap is the most efficient and safe way to unlock the blade.
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.
No one wants to view photos of a beautiful and unique knife and receive something not even close to the representative image; this is why we take pictures of each piece. Select your One-Of-A-Kind knife!
Things to Look For
The file work on the springs (top of handle) are individually hand filled by a French artisan, therefore all are different. Additionally, two handles made from the same material can have very different patterns.
