Wildsteer knives

Our knives are fully made in France between Thiers, the cutlery capital for 6 centuries and Saint-Etienne, the design capital. We are backed by strong manufacturing and artistic traditions combining innovation and technology.

We design all our models most often to meet with a specific requirement in terms of use. This was the case for the “Wildsteer” with the arrow extractor function, the WING-Tactic developed with and for the GIGN (national gendarmerie intervention group), etc.

Once the functions are defined, the draft drawing is quickly transformed into a prototype in order to validate the ergonomics, balance and eye-catching aspects. Then come the different field tests. No model of a knife is listed in the catalogue without being previously put to the test in the field, either by ourselves or professionals (1st parachute chasseur regiment, naval commando, etc).

The blades are then forged and laser cut, hardened then ground and polished at Thiers.

We perform in the Wildsteer workshop close to Saint-Etienne, the assembly and mounting of all the folding knife models(Wild79, WX, WS, W pocket, W'eStaing, etc). Each knife handle covered in leather is mounted in the workshop as are the paracord handles.
