Nomadic cooking: What is it?

Nomadic cooking is the art of preparing tasty and refined meals wherever you are.

Accessories that make the difference:

Carrying cases :

Protecting your nomadic kitchen knives when you travel is essential. Our carrying cases (with belt loop) are designed to be both elegant and robust, ensuring the safety of your blades. They are all made of leather from the Basque country and custom-made for each of our knives. Your knives will be even more stylish than you are!

Indestructible cutting board :

Forget about stones and unexpected surfaces to cut your ingredients. The puncture-proof paperstone cutting board with juice collector is not only practical, rot-proof, but also hygienic and easy to clean after use. And no, it's not a TV shopping gadget!

Pocket sharpening stone :

A sharp knife is the key to successful preparation. Our pocket-sized Pyrenees water stone is compact and efficient, allowing you to keep your blades in perfect condition, wherever you are. For versatility and lightness, we created a hybrid between the steel (to sharpen → straighten the edge) and the stone (to sharpen → create an edge). A two-in-one that would make MacGyver pale!

The multifunctional cutlery:

Cook and enjoy all your dishes with our innovative 3-in-1 cutlery. The brushed stainless steel Georgette is the ideal tool, equipped with a soup spoon, a teaspoon, a fork and a separator. Practical and compact, this cutlery will be useful to you on all your trips. Because why settle for a simple fork when you can have La Georgette?

How to use your nomadic knives properly?

To get the most out of our knives, here are some practical tips:

• Maintain your blades : Clean and dry your portable kitchen knives after each use to prevent dirt buildup and maintain their sharpness. Think of it like brushing the teeth on your knife.

• Sharpen regularly : Use the pocket sharpening stone to keep your blades sharp. A well-sharpened knife is not only more efficient but also safer. Because a dull knife is like a pencil without a lead.

• Use suitable surfaces : Always use a cutting board to protect the blade and ensure precise cutting. Your knife will thank you!
