London: A sailor knife.

Inspired by our English friends' "Sailor" or "Sway backjack" knives, it was around 1850 that this knife appeared in France and was named "The London". Also called "Terre-Neuvas" or "Gabier", its only name evokes the roughness of the sea works, the start at the tide of morning or evening for distant races, uncertain horizons.

A knife from the sea's foreclosures, the English-born stylus (or grade foot) shape of its blade and its robustness made it possible to cut ropes dry, and for sure, sometimes using a mallet. The usual urgency of the situation made an effective, functional and reliable tool indispensable.

The rounded shape of the blade was the only one allowed to avoid any serious injury, whether accidental or as a result of rixes that could break out due to promiscuity and endless stays at sea.

This knife in our pocket is a little ocean in our daily life.
