Atelier du Flancou
Le Flancou: chunky, sharp... simply unique.
Self-taught, I created the Flancou inspired by an old model and adapted it for everyday use.
It's a Bulldog-style knife with a stainless blade (14C28N steel) in the shape of a Sheep's Foot.
Its cutting edge is resistant and can be used for the table, for culinary preparations but also for carving wood and for any other cutting purpose.
The shape of the handle provides a comfortable, stable grip. Brass (lead-free) and dense hardwoods (Boxwood, Holm Oak, Ash, Beech...) are used for the handle.
The overall length of the Flancou is approximately 16.5cm with a 3mm-thick blade. The handle alone measures between 9 and 9.5cm.
The Flancou takes its name from the spring that flows through Montsalès, and "Flancou" has recently become a protected name for this knife.
