Founded in 1870 in Thiers, the cutlery company was established at a time when knives were an integral part of everyday life, particularly for farm labourers, who often carried one with them for their daily tasks.<\/p>\n

A simple and sturdy object, the wooden clog symbolised a way of living and working centred on practicality, sturdiness and durability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

From the very beginning, the cutlery company chose to engrave this name on its knives, thereby affirming its connection to a working-class tradition based on a job well done and respect for materials.<\/p>\n

It reflects a commitment to simple yet essential values, inherited from the craftsmanship of days gone by.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today, Au Sabot has successfully built on this heritage by developing a recognised brand catering to a variety of everyday uses: from the kitchen to the dining table<\/strong>, right through to folding knives. Whilst remaining true to its traditional roots and historic craftsmanship, the company designs knives built to last, combining tradition, functionality and modernity<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
