"The Pradel knife, a true emblem of French cutlery, has a rich history dating back to 1867. This model, inspired by English knives from Sheffield, quickly became popular along the French west coast, from Normandy to Bordeaux.
This versatile knife is distinguished by its black horn handle, a natural material offering a comfortable, elegant grip. Its carbon steel blade, renowned for its ability to maintain a precise, long-lasting edge, measures 9 cm when the knife is open.
Did you know? The Pradel was originally known by various names such as “genre anglais”, ‘london’ or “marin”, before finally adopting the name of its creator, Etienne Pradel.
Between 1850 and 1950, the Pradel became the best-selling knife, testifying to its quality and popularity. Three generations of the Pradel family helped maintain and develop the knife's reputation, facing numerous lawsuits to protect their trademark.
Today, the Pradel name remains synonymous with quality for connoisseurs, particularly in the field of kitchen knives. This Pradel, delivered in a magnetic black box with certificate of origin and warranty, is a true piece of French cutlery history."
