...Chambriard French knives are a modern twist on the traditional Laguiole style knife with contemporary lines and form.
The detail and beauty of these knives are breathtaking. They are crafted using the very finest materials.
The blades are all Sandvik 12c27 Swedish steel. This is the preferred steel by most of the high-end French cutlers. It has a high carbon level and has many of the qualities of carbon steel, but also has the advantage of being stainless.
The handles of these fine knives are made from top grade, exotic materials including Ebony, Amourette, Rosewood, Ebony, natural horn tip and Juniper wood.
Each knife is 100% handcrafted and each is decorated with craftsman's whim guilloche (hand file work) on the back spring.
Chambriard brings together all the best aspects of what a fine knife making company should be. They stand behind the quality of their knives. They make every knife one at a time by hand using techniques honed over many generations. They are also in the dictionary under the word "integrity". In dealing with Chambriard for about 8 years they have always had the finest service of any company that we do business with.
'Le Thiers' stands out in their production of cutlery. Named after the French town, which is known as the the capital of the cutlery industry, this outstanding knife represents a culmination of the ancestrial know-how of longstanding cutlery tradition
