Yssingeaux Collection Pocket Knife - Silver Rope - Damascus Rosewood

The Yssingeaux (pronounced "e seɪn jo") is named after its birthplace of "Yssingeaux" a village in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The version of the knife you see today was baptized Yssingeaux around 1920 but was also found in slightly different formats since the late 1800s under the name "Issoire," "Bourbonnais (1890)", "Façon Chabrol (1908)" and "Le Basque (1912)". 

Technical aspects: This knife features a solid hardened blade stop to help prevent the blade's edge from contacting the spring's inner area. This knife's handle is progressively wider toward the bottom. This characteristic provides a safer grip.

Collector Series: This exclusive model features a Damascus blade, and hand-filed spiraled handles treaded with solid sterling silver.

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 pocket knives money can buy. All Knives offered by Gilles are entirely made by a single craftsman from start to finish, ensuring ownership of the final piece. 100% Made in France

Blade: 3 mm thick Stainless Damasteel 2.50mm thick, 56-57 Hrc. Forged in Sweden.
Plates: 1.5 mm stainless.
Handle: Hand-filed spiraled handles treaded with a sterling silver rope.
Hand file Spring: 3 mm stainless with genuine Mother of Pearl Inlay - Hand file 
Blade Size: 8.8 cm (3.45")
Handle Size: 11 cm (4.33") 
Open Size: 20 cm (7.80 ") 
Weight: ~ 86 grams (3 oz.)

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.

How to Maintain Your Pocket Knife

Pocket Knives are designed for cutting only. Do not use it as a screwdriver, crowbar, wood chisel, as this can cause irreversible damage and void the warranty.

To keep your pocket knife in top condition, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Lubricate Moving Parts: Periodically apply a few drops of lubricant to all moving parts. This ensures smooth operation and extends the life of your knife.
  2. Hand Wash Only: Always hand wash your pocket knife. After washing, dry it quickly with a soft towel to prevent rust and corrosion.
  3. Recommended Lubricant: We highly recommend using Sentry-Solutions Tuf Glide for all our folding knives. It provides excellent lubrication and protection.

Important Note: Tuf Glide is not considered a "food-safe" product. Avoid using it on knives that come into contact with food.

By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your pocket knife remains reliable and ready for your next adventure.
