The Nontron knife shares the name of the French village of its birth located in the Dordogne department. This knife's history is filled with so many legends that it is difficult to date its exact origin; however, most experts agree that the Nontron knife is the oldest French folding knife dating back to the 13th century. Today, the cutlery that bears its name since 1928 produces handmade knives using ancestral methods. The procedures used to conceive todays' Nontron pocket knives are nearly the same since the fifteenth century.

Handle type: 3 functions - large blade - decapsuler - small blade
Locking system: Slipjoint. The blades are held in position by a strong "back spring" but are not "locked". Most French traditional pocket knives continue to use this proven system (i.e Laguiole knives).
