Playing with a some matter and elements,
I’d like to share my own take on beauty.

I hope that this beauty resonates with some of you, and brings you something good. Because yes, I believe an object can hold what we pour into it.

It can carry our energy, almost become sacred, and in turn give something back to the person who owns it.

Origin

I began forging in the forest, than mountain.
Embrassing fire. Chasing silence.

Nature was my first workshop.

_{my previous workshop in pyrénées}

Spirit

The traditional approach, through its difficulty, has shaped me as a craftsman.

My elders guided me along this path; the elements and the material shape me just as much as I shape them each day

Process

My work is guided by ancient techniques from the art of Japanese blades.
I favor traditional techniques without locking myself into extremism; I also use machines, even if I limit their use.

I work with carbon steel, old reclaimed steels and artisanal Tamahagane.

Each piece is carefully shaped, forge-welded, sharpened on Japanese stones, hand-polished, carved with traditional chisels, and lacquered with Japanese Urushi over several weeks.

Philosophy

Every knife is crafted slowly, embracing imperfection, seeking to reveal the raw beauty of steel and wood.

I aim not only for efficiency, but also I wish to infuse each piece with presence and subtle energy, in view to resonates with its owner and environment.
