Handmade forge in north Cotentin

Carbone Stellaire

Hand-forged knives shaped from raw steel and stellar imagination.

Carbone Stellaire

The carbon in my blades comes from the heart of stars. It is born through the triple-alpha reaction, scattered across the universe by supernovas, and eventually finds its way into steel. Carbone Stellaire is a tribute to that raw, powerful origin. I hand-forge each blade in my workshop, then give every knife its own character. Browse the ranges below, or contact me for a custom project.

From fire to hand

Crafting Process

Making a knife by hand requires control over a full chain of craft skills. It starts with steel: choosing the right alloy for the intended use, forging the blade by hand, and keeping the hammered texture as a visible signature. Heat treatment then gives the edge its durability and precision. Finally, the handle must extend the blade naturally, both in shape and material. A handmade knife is useful, beautiful, and built to last.

The workshop

The Workshop

Carbone Stellaire is a bladesmithing and knife-making workshop in the north of the Cotentin peninsula.

My name is Thibault Wittemberg. I have been designing handmade knives since early 2023, shaping each blade in my own gas forge. Every piece is designed to balance efficiency, durability, and visual identity.

I make three main ranges: Edge Of Space, Cyber Edge, and Le Sciotot, along with SciFi Legends pieces inspired by science-fiction icons.

I also take custom requests. Use the contact form if you want to discuss a specific piece.
