Hello everyone,

I am recreating a thread here after deleting the first one due to a mistake on my part... 😩

I have been a full-time French knife maker for about two years. I make folding and fixed knives, I mainly work on customs orders and can ship them anywhere in the world. I like working with blades that are tall and thin, offering great cutting power.

For folding models, I work with two types of locks for both models :

- Classic linerlock
- Double detent system : In terms of feel, it's a bit like a slipjoint. To explain a little, I build a kind of double linerlock where the retention balls fit into holes in the blade. You can find many examples of the system in action on my Instagram.




Here are my main models :

- “Destiny folder” :




- "Horizon folder" :




- "Fixed Destiny" :



- "Office outdoor" :




I hope you like all this and that I manage not to delete this second thread... 😁

Thank you, For micarta and certain types of carbon, I use materials that are handmade in Europe. They are much denser and stronger than what I can find here in regular stores.

I'll try to come to the blade show, but nothing is certain yet.

For steel, I mainly use 2.6 mm thick RWL34 on folding knives. This gives you a blade that cuts extremely well.
I can also work with other blade thicknesses, up to 3.5 or even 4 mm on some fixed knives.
For finishing, I sell a lot of stonewash, on which I like to add a few satin elements. I can also do all satin, and I also like to do a satin stonewash blade, which I think is very nice.

Yes, it's becoming rare, but I like it when a knife really cuts ;)

I didn't mention it, but I only work with knives of my own design. I've always tried to prioritize the grip. I designed them all myself and made lots of prototypes and modifications to make them as comfortable as possible to hold.
Always in this spirit of trying to do things differently, that's why I developed the double detent system that I love. It's secure enough to really work with (especially for a knife without a real lock) and the sound it makes when opening and closing is gorgeous.


Please do not hesitate you have any further questions or comments (positive or negative).

Hello, hello!!

I am reposting here a few knives I made in 2025 that disappeared with my first thread.

Fatcarbon, handmade carbon, micarta, wood, and blades ranging from 3“ to 3.75”, there is something for everyone...😄😄







Sorry for the quality of some of the photos; they are taken from videos... I will probably make one or two more posts with the knives I like best from 2025.

Have a nice day, everyone.

Hello,

Two new creations made recently :

A 3.3" Destiny Linerlock. The handle is made of morta wood with a red liner to add a pop of color.



A large destiny double detent. The blade is 3.75" with a rounded spine. The handle is handmade carbon fiber and was sent to me by the customer.
The knife has three different finishes:
- the blade and clip are satin stonewash
- the plates are dark stonewash
- the backspacer is satin

It was a really nice knife to make 😃



I hope you enjoy them.

Have a great Sunday, everyone.
