After Jacques Decoret of the restaurant of the same name, let’s meet Rémy Giraud from the Domaine des Hauts de Loire located at Onzain between Blois and Tours.
This double-starred chef knows the Dozorme cutlery well since he uses his knives in his cooking school « L’Art des Mets ». Remy Giraud remembers: “It was 4 years ago, I was looking for French-made kitchen knives for my cooking school when I met Claudine Dozorme at the Maison & Objet Salon. I knew then, of reputation, the city of Thiers and its ancestral know-how in the manufacture of knives of quality less the cutlery Claude Dozorme. So we met: after explaining my request, she told me the story of the family factory and introduced me to the various products crafted in the heart of his workshop near Thiers. I really could appreciate the brand’s knives “.
His choice was immediately focused on the new range of kitchen knives imagined and designed by Thomas Bastide and named Flat Cut. What seduced him? The resolutely modern design of these kitchen knives and their originality with their asymmetrical shape and the inclination of the handle.
And he doesn’t intend to stop there with the cutlery Dozorme! Proof of his great satisfaction for the kitchen knives of the brand, he plans to use now the table knives London in its new bistro-style establishment that will open shortly.
In the meantime, he is always proud to value the national gastronomy while promoting the art of the French table without stopping to pass on his knowledge to the younger generations!
Who are you Rémy Giraud ?
Originally from Vendée, Rémy Giraud arrived at the Domaine des Hauts de Loire in 1986 as a second. Two years later, he took the reins of the furnaces and obtained a first Michelin star and a second in 1993. A great recognition for this chef who had never previously worked for a starred table!
A few years later, thinking about his end of career, he decided to create the Art of Mets, cooking school entirely imagined and conceived by his son, architect. In this semi-professional school “so that my students feel at home”, Rémy Giraud transmits his secrets and his knowledge and likes to value local products and local producers.
Le Thiers® and le Laguiole in a video signed HMWK
Since 1902, Claude Dozorme sublimates an ever more daring cutlery. Derived from ancestral know-how, modernized and jostled, the creations of the Manufacture, entirely created and handcrafted in France, are resolutely turned towards the future and technical innovation. This is particularly the case for its range of outdoor knives: Liner lock Le Thiers® and Le Baroudeur Laguiole. Faithful partners of hikers and open spaces lovers, these 2 knives have been specially designed to meet all expectations and all needs.
Today, to increase the value of its pocket knives among the youngest, the family-owned company wanted to stage them through a small film orchestrated by a young start-up from Clermont, HMWK :
For Claudine Dozorme, manager of cutlery, the idea was to draw a parallel between Dozome’s cutlery know-how and the innovative nature of the knives to stick to the brand’s “modernized tradition” brand.
For HMWK, there was no question of communicating raw and obvious on the knives but rather turning to a more subtle presentation that would value the values of manufacturing: quality, sharing and trust.
Blanche, one of the managers of the audiovisual company and director, explains the creative principle: « During this project, we wanted to anchor the brand on a territory, in a past and in values. Thus the knife appeared to us as the extension of the arm, the tool that makes sense, that ensures, the one that we have in all circumstances, even the most atypical. Climbing naturally seemed to us to be the ideal subject for moving the “product message”, while keeping the ideas defended through the Claude Dozorme knives. It was for us the possibility to avoid some common places to highlight the use and the user of the knives Claude Dozorme. ».
The result ? A bluffing clip to the aesthetics of more neat mixing indoor and outdoor images shot between manufacturing workshop in Thiers and Sancy.
The brand Claude Dozorme? More than ever in the air!

What would be the end of year celebrations without Champagne, a sparkling symbol of French elegance and refinement ? Loved worldwide for its light, sparkling bubbles and its unique taste, it’s the standard bearer for the image and attractiveness of France. The opening and serving of Champagne is imbued with a certain ritual. The most emblematic of these is still the sabering of the neck of the bottle.
To perpetuate this centuries-old tradition, the Claude Dozorme Company is reissuing magnificent collections of Champagne sabers, entirely made in France in the heart of the family factory in Thiers.

Do you know the origin of this tradition ?
The practice of sabering champagne dates back to the nineteenth century and the hussars of the Napoleonic Guard. Indeed, these brave warriors used to pay homage to victory, vigor, virility and the ladies by … blowing up the champagne cork with a simple flip of the blade. They sabered the Champagne. A spectacular and masterful gesture explained by Claudine and Claude Dozorme.
Somewhat fallen into disuse in recent years, sabered remains a true symbol of the French way of life, both chic and timeless and invariably evokes the most beautiful solemn parties.
So why not be tempted by this magnificent original and prestigious object that will gracefully accompany all your events ?
