The roots of cutlery in Thiers
Nestled in the heart of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, the town of Thiers is a global benchmark for handmade knives. Since the Middle Ages, it has proudly held the title of “French Cutlery Capital”, thanks to its unique heritage combining ancestral know-how and constant innovation.
Renowned for its exceptional blades and knives, Thiers embodies a centuries-old tradition in which every tool is designed with unrivalled attention to detail. This concentration of skills and creativity has made the town an international symbol of quality, particularly for top-of-the-range pocket and table knives.
Atelier Les 2 Diables perpetuates this rich tradition by integrating artisanal techniques handed down from generation to generation with modern methods of innovation. Our commitment is to produce exceptional knives that combine the history of Thiers with contemporary excellence.
Rooted in the foothills of the Auvergne volcanoes
The Chaîne des Puys is an alignment of 80 volcanoes, almost 100,000 years of history, our source of inspiration. Each knife is unique, reflecting the raw beauty and volcanic history of theAuvergne. They symbolize our commitment to fusing nature and craftsmanship into a single concept.
At our workshop in La Monnerie-le-Montel in the Puy-de-Dôme département of France. We design knives with lava stone handles, distinguished by their originality and authenticity. Indeed, Volvic lava stone, from the Puy-de-la-Nugère region, is a unique material of natural beauty.
Our handcrafted manufacturing process preserves the natural texture and nuances of the stone, while ensuring ergonomic and durable handles. Each knife is thus a companion that combines functionality and aesthetics.
