Before the emergence of the Laguiole knife in the early 19th century, French shepherds relied on a versatile tool known as the "Capuchadou" or "capujadou." This all-purpose pocket knife served various functions, including meal preparation and everyday tasks. The addition of the four-leaf clover symbolized good fortune.

Consider this: Crafted in Thiers, the European hub of cutlery, this knife is part of the esteemed Gilles® Fontenille Pataud collections, regarded by many as the finest pocket knives in France. Each knife is meticulously handcrafted by a single craftsman, guaranteeing pride and exclusivity in the final piece. 100% Made in France

Technical aspects: The spring, crafted from 3 mm thick Z20c13 stainless steel, incorporates a blade-stop to preserve the blade's sharpness. The hand-chased "Shamrock" and handle top, created with a file, signify exceptional artisan quality - starkly contrasting to mass-produced knives with welded springs and machine decorations. These intricate file work details render each knife uniquely one-of-a-kind.
