Product History

The Nontron takes its name from the village where it was born, located in the Dordogne in the Périgord vert. Its history is so long that it is even difficult to date its birth. Experts agree that the Nontron is the oldest knife in France.
As early as the 12th century, Parisian knife makers passed through Nontron during their tour de France. This reputation for excellence in metalworking prompted the King of France Charles VII "the Victorious" (placed on the throne by Joan of Arc) to order his royal sword there.
La Coutellerie Nontronnaise was created in 1928 and was bought by Forge de Laguiole in 1992. Since then, the latter has been committed to preserving this French knife-making expertise. The artisanal company currently employs about twenty knife makers and is EPV certified (Living Heritage Company).
