Goyon Juniper Wood Le Thiers Pirou Folding knife with Leather Pouch and Box
The elegant design of the Goyon Chazeau “Thiers” folding knife was sourced from the region’s top knifemakers to best represent the long lineage of knifemaking in the city. Don’t underestimate the simple, classic shape, as it is designed as much for culinary pursuits as utility, evolving from the classic all-purpose knife carried by farmers and shepherds. With its long, slender blade, this pocket knife is a true do-it-all knife capable of everything from gathering herbs in the garden and trimming twine to opening mail, breaking down boxes, whittling or slicing sausage and cheese for lunch. The handmade knife features an ultra-tough Swedish 12c27 blade that will hold an edge for ages and sharpen up easily. The juniper wood handle packs a peppery aroma and terrific feel in the hand. The blade remains securely open with a stiff slipjoint spring, so there’s little risk of it closing during use.
Never to be caught without a knife, Matt Card, our creative director of recipe and products, has carried one of these for years—and even used it to prepare more than a few meals while on vacation. And the accompanying soft leather pouch will help keep it scratch free in your pocket or bag.
Goyon Mixed Wood Brasserie 6-Piece Steak Knives with Beech Wooden Gift Box
Goyon-Chazeau uses tried-and-true X46cr13 stainless steel for the blades of their Brasserie line of table knives, which hold a fine edge and are impervious to rusting, meaning they will last for generations. The gorgeous, smoothly finished wood handles come in six different types: boxwood, olive, juniper, rosewood, kingwood and wenge. We hesitate to call these steak knives as you’ll use them for so much more.
Goyon-Chazeau Mixed Wood Avantage Steak Knives Set of 6 in Beech Wooden Gift Box
Enjoy beauty and strength with this set of mixed wood avantage steak knives. Unlike the brasserie collection, these knives are forged, with blades made only of X46CR13 stainless steel. Their steel is stronger, with an edge that lasts longer due to a less flexible blade. Plus, the forged steel extends through the handle for balance, making it both comfortable to use and durable. And with no chiseling on the back of each piece, the beauty of the lines and materials simply shines.
