“All my blades are entirely crafted in the traditional way, entirely by hammer, my punch certifies that the only machine that will have been used is the backstand for polishing and sharpening.”

Bruno has dedicated his life to traditional craftsmanship. At La Farga Catar, he uses historical tools and skills to craft knives, tools, and metalwork that reflect centuries of French artisan heritage. His workshop is not just a place of production — it’s a living museum of medieval metallurgy.
In an age of industrial mass production, Bruno’s forge reminds us of the value of time, dedication, and authenticity. His work not only preserves historical knowledge but also offers an alternative: meaningful objects, made by hand, with a story.
Through our collaboration with La Farga Catar, Yueh’s Choice is proud to bring these rare, hand-forged creations to Taiwan. Each piece you see here is sourced directly from Bruno’s forge — an authentic symbol of French craftsmanship.
Curious about how medieval forging works? Bruno’s process involves hand-bellowed fires, traditional anvils, and techniques passed down from history books and oral traditions. We hope to soon share more videos and behind-the-scenes stories from his workshop.
