The word of the craftsman
Let me introduce myself, my name is Clara, I am 33 years old. I was not destined to become a knife maker but after several years working in the audiovisual world in Paris, I made the decision to leave everything and start a professional retraining. The desire to return to live near my roots in the southwest of France became too present in my daily life.
I have always known my father with his collection of knives, he has always loved it. The idea of creating a regional knife comes from him, originally. But, lacking time, he never could fully devote himself to this project. Forced to have to reinvent myself, I also started to take an interest in knife making. I wanted to return to values that suited me more, I wanted to create and let my imagination guide my actions. I have always been attracted to the world of craftsmanship and I had the feeling that my professional fulfillment was there.
After several months of reflection and my wonderful meeting with the art knife maker and trainer Mr. Raymond ROSA, my workshop and its Solen could finally see the light of day in January 2021.
