The cutlery manufacturer Cognet "MC Cognet" was founded in 1835 in Thiers, in the Auvergne region. It is one of the oldest French cutlery houses. Family-owned for four generations, the knives are still made in accordance with traditional craft methods.

The Douk-Douk knife was created in 1929 and was initially intended for the colonial market in Polynesia. The emblem engraved on the knife is a Douk-Douk, a Melanesian creature representing a spirit in that culture. The knife was quickly adopted in that market, then in the North African and sub-Saharan African markets. It even became the most widely used pocket knife in French Algeria in 1939. Although non-regulation, it was widespread among the troops of the Armée d'Afrique and spread into the territories liberated in the course of the fighting.

The razor-sharp edge of its blade (it has sometimes been used in that role!) and its very flat profile — which makes it easy to conceal — make it a formidable weapon, to the point that it was classified as "war materiel", banned and confiscated by the French Army during the Algerian War.

Fitting easily in a pocket, a bag or in its belt sheath, the Douk-Douk is today your ideal companion for everyday use.
