French knife manufacturer
Its history begins in the 1950s and continues until today thanks to the successive work of three generations of the same family.
Since 2017, Magali (born Goyon) and her husband Vincent Soucille have been the 3rd generation and have worked to make the family business a national and international must-have reference of the made in France knives quality.
The cutlery has the EPV state label (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant / Living Heritage Company) for its unique expertise in stainless steel welding, forging work and its mastery of artisanal cutlery manufacturing.
These skills allow it to be one of the last French companies to produce hollow handles and to offer fully forged items 100% French.
The workshop is historically located at La Monnerie Le Montel, near Thiers, capital of cutlery for more than six centuries.
It now hosts 10 employees, workers and offices members combined, and 1 to 2 apprentices.

All products are 100% French and artisanal, made with exclusive supplies from the Thiers basin and rigorously selected materials.
