Le Bateau Phare - Art and collectible knives

Shops ,  Various other shops ,  Hunting clothing and equipment / gunsmiths / knives in Saint-Martin-de-Ré
  • Near the church of Saint-Martin de Ré, "Le Bateau Phare" is unlike any other shop in this busy rue de Sully, whether you go down or up depending on whether you are going or that one comes from the port. Evening and morning, its owner tirelessly removes and remakes his window. Because one does not joke with the knives, and they cannot remain thus exposed during the night in the lunar light. Welcome to the little world of Luc de la Tranchade!

    Near the church of Saint-Martin de Ré, "Le Bateau Phare" is unlike any other shop in this busy rue de Sully, whether you go down or up depending on whether you are going or that one comes from the port. Evening and morning, its owner tirelessly removes and remakes his window. Because one does not joke with the knives, and they cannot remain thus exposed during the night in the lunar light. Welcome to the little world of Luc de la Tranchade!

    "Le Bateau Phare" is a special place, sharp (so to speak) with the other shops on rue de Sully. And the first of the surprises is the shop itself, an old pharmacy whose woodwork and apothecary jars can still be appreciated, still on their shelves. There the allusion to the field of pharmacopoeia ends. Because everywhere, there are ... Knives! There are so many of them that you cannot see them all at one glance. There are simple and sculpted ones, small ones with colorful sleeves that look harmless, and bigger ones that look menacing. Pocket knives, table knives, kitchen knives or sailors' knives, from the simple opinel to the artisanal creation, impossible not to find a knife in your hand in this cave of Ali Baba!
