Grand Cru is the highest classification level for wine in France. Depending on the region, the location or the characteristics of the vineyard determine the coveted seal of approval. Selected grape varieties such as Carbernet Sauvignon or Merlot are firmly associated with this term, as are production processes, some of which have been refined over centuries, from the grape harvest to the destemming and fermentation processes. There are also exquisite products "Fabriqué en France" away from the famous Châteaux (French wine estates). The tranquil town of Thiers (Puy-de-Dôme département) in the heart of France literally offers the best location for high-quality knives and is world-famous for the traditional Laguiole pocket knives in particular.
Since 1992, the knives from TB Outdoor have been among the award-winning products with a distinct tactical flavor, after which the family-run company has established itself as the house and court supplier of the French military and various special units since 1996. The roots of Tarrerias-Bonjean go back as far as 1648, so that the manufacturer can definitely call itself the Grand Cru of the knife industry. The targeted combination of tradition, modern manufacturing processes and addressing a wide variety of target groups make the TB Group the current leading manufacturer of cutlery in France and also known far beyond the borders of the Grande Nation. The constant exchange with the military provides valuable information that is incorporated into the product development of future projects. The field-tested knives are therefore also becoming increasingly popular with private customers.
The most popular models include the versatile and attractively priced Bivouac: earthy, down-to-earth and with a fine touch of haute cuisine, the classic camping pocket knife with fork and spoon ensures the physical well-being of soldiers and nature lovers alike. TB Outdoor has the C.A.C. (Combat Assistance Campagne) for the increased demands of emergency services and adventurers, which impresses on any terrain with its many color, material and equipment variants. The focus of this modern pocket knife is on ease of use and uncompromising reliability, rounded off by a practical design with a tactical and refined bouquet. The fixed-blade knives are a harmonious and rounded addition to the range.
