Why does the Massu fascinate collectors so much? This knife of Alsatian origin tells a rich and mysterious story. Its black horn handle offers a unique, robust grip. Horn, a natural material, makes each knife unique.
Did you know? The name “Massu” comes from its characteristic shape, with larger, club-shaped bolsters contrasting with the slimmer back of the handle.
This knife was popular in Alsace, the Vosges and Lorraine in the early 20th century. Local craftsmen made them with meticulous care, passing on their know-how from generation to generation.
In the past, Alsatian winegrowers used the Massu to cut bunches of grapes during the harvest, appreciating its sturdy blade and integrated corkscrew.
Take this Massu in your hand: you'll be holding an object of regional heritage, a testimony to Alsatian craftsmanship and history.
