"What is it about blond horn tips that fascinates knife lovers so much? This natural material offers a unique beauty and tells the story of ancestral know-how. The Monnerie knife, made by Teymen at La Monnerie-le-Montel near Thiers, combines tradition with natural elegance.
Did you know? Blond horn comes from the tips of cattle horns, giving it exceptional texture and strength.
Cattle horn is a fascinating natural material, rich in history and unique properties. Composed mainly of keratin, the same substance as our hair, it offers exceptional texture and strength. In the past, horn was a precious material used to make buttons, combs, pipe stems and cane handles.
Horn possesses remarkable characteristics: it is easy to shape mechanically and deformable under the effect of heat. Once heated and softened, it can be sawn, split, compressed, drilled or turned. Its surface is pleasant to the touch, warm and moisture-regulating.
Each horn tells the animal's story: its rings reveal its age, health and even its living conditions. In the case of a cow, these rings can be linked to pregnancy or seasonal variations.
Take this Monnerie in your hand: you'll be holding a fragment of nature, an object that carries within it the memory of an animal."
