Our Story

ThiersBlade was born in Thiers, France — a city that has been forging the world's finest blades for over 600 years.

I'm a local collector, born and raised in the knife capital of the world. My family has deep roots in the cutlery community here. Growing up surrounded by master bladesmiths, I developed a passion for the rare and the authentic — pieces that tell a story before you even open them.

Every knife on this site has been personally sourced in Thiers. I know the workshops, the makers, and the history behind each piece. When you buy from ThiersBlade, you're not buying from a warehouse. You're buying from someone who walked the same streets as the craftsmen who made your knife.

Thiers produces over 70% of all French-made knives. Yet most of the world has never heard of it. ThiersBlade exists to change that — one rare blade at a time.
