Cutlery shops Provence

Coutellerie de Lodi is a Marseilles institution. At the same address for over 100 years, they make the very best blades. The shop window is always splendid, attracting passers-by like a magnet. The selection of knives is magnificent. From professional blades to penknives for enthusiasts, there's something for everyone. The knives are handcrafted from the finest materials. For handles, the horns and woods (olive, oak...) are sublimated and the blades shine brightly. Major brands such as Opinel, Victorinox, Nontron and Fontenille Pataud are represented in the store. La Coutellerie de Lodi also offers knife sharpening for private and professional customers. But you'll also find the very best in shaving and chiselling. An address worth discovering or rediscovering.

Handcrafted by cutlers from Tulle (the parent company of Ateliers de couteaux régionaux has been based in Corrèze since 2004), the collections are always inspired by the French terroir: you will find the Breizh Kontell knife (Brittany), Elsass (Alsace), L'Occitan (Languedoc)... but the Petit Futé has a preference for the Lou Provençau knife with its olive wood handle and its spring adorned with a steel twig. In addition to pocket knives, you will also find table knives, kitchen knives and various accessories.
