Dating back for over six hundred years, the Thiers region of France is renowned for its excellence in knife making. Au Nain’s “Le Thiers” steak knives are meticulously handcrafted in the bucolic hills of southern France, where each knife is individually handmade by local artisans using time-honored craftsmanship, preserving the tradition of high-quality knife making. Featuring sleek and sophisticated stainless-steel handles, these elegantly curved steak knives will enhance any casual or formal table setting. The razor-sharp stainless-steel blades cut steak with an easy efficiency while the curvature of the knife feels well balanced and is comfortable to hold.
The legend of Au Nain began in 1885 in St. Remy, France, by the current owner’s great-grandfather, Gaston Saint-Joanis. When his main competitor boasted of being the “Giant of the knife”, the imposing 6’5″ Saint-Joanis replied with characteristic humor and panache by creating the brand “Au Nain” – the dwarf! And that is how this giant of the French cutlery business was born! Four generations later, Au Nain has established its reputation with consumers around the world who demand high standards from their hand-made stainless-steel knives and utensils.
