Atelier NÉVÉ Tim Bernard macassar ebony and mother of pearl with mosaik damascus blade

Handcrafted linerlock gentleman’s knife from the workshop of Tim Bernard (Atelier NÉVÉ) in Thiers.
The handle scales are made from semi-fossilized desert ironwood root – an exceptional material with a unique, striking grain.

The standout feature of this elegant pocket knife is the mosaic Damascus blade, hand-forged by Tim Bernard himself, with a hardness of approximately HRC 60.

The liners are adorned with a hand-hammered guilloché pattern, while the brass spacer is richly decorated.
The blade locks securely via a linerlock mechanism.


Tim Bernard created the Névé in 2015 on the occasion of the competition of the Institut National des métiers d'art at the end of his training. He comes from the Hautes Alpes (05) and wanted to design a knife with a fluid and lively shape that resembles Alpine rivers ...

Tim describes it as great luck to have been trained by Manu Laplace 1515. The skills and refined abilities learned there guarantee quality products made with passion and care.
