Known and recognized models
gradually rehabilitated
Fond of cutlery, Pierre Douris has created multiple models and variations in many spheres: traditional pocket knives, multi-function knives, knives dedicated to leisure, hunting, fishing, horse riding ...
Thus "Le Pionnier", "Le Hallali", "Le Novateur", "Le Futuriste" are known and recognized DOURIS CHASTEL knives which have made and still make the reputation of the brand ...
