The legend of Au Nain began in 1885 in St. Remy, France, by the   current owner’s great-grandfather, Gaston Saint-Joanis. When his main competitor boasted of being the “Giant of the knife”, the imposing 6’5”  Saint-Joanis replied with characteristic humor and panache by creating the   brand “Au Nain” … the dwarf! And that is how this giant of the French cutlery business was born! Four generations later, Au Nain has established   its reputation with consumers around the world who demand high standards from   their handmade stainless-steel knives and utensils.
