Fabric-Inlay Plates with Floral Patterns – Made in France by Mercorne

Add a unique floral touch to your creations with our fabric-inlaid panels featuring floral patterns, made in France at the Mercorne workshops in Langogne, Lozère.

These plates combine fabrics with floral patterns and a transparent acrylic resin. The inclusion process preserves the fabric’s designs within the material while providing a surface that can be shaped and polished for crafting knife handles.

Colorful flowers, floral arrangements, and combinations of shades allow you to create handles with a distinctively decorative character. These patterns offer an alternative to traditional wood grain patterns and solid-colored composite materials.

Manufactured in our workshops: at Mercorne, we produce our own inclusions in Langogne. This manufacturing process allows us to offer original materials to cutlers, designers, and artisans who wish to personalize their creations.

The flower-patterned inlay sheets are particularly well-suited for kitchen knives, folding knives, table knives, and handcrafted items requiring a decorative material.

Working and Finishing Tips

Acrylic resin can be worked with tools designed for cutting and machining composite materials. Shaping is done gradually, by adjusting the tools and working parameters.

When sawing, drilling, and sanding, it is important to minimize heat buildup to prevent damage to the surface or the material.

Gradual sanding with appropriate abrasives removes machining marks. The finish can then be achieved using polishing compounds compatible with acrylic resins to obtain a smooth, glossy surface.

To care for the finished handle, clean it gently with a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and high temperatures.

Tips and Sales Pitch

A knife stands out as much for its blade as for the choice of its handle. With Mercorne’s floral-patterned inlays, the cutler can offer a creation that breaks away from traditional materials without compromising the craftsmanship and finishing techniques unique to their trade.

The appeal of these plates lies in the combination of a decorative fabric with a material intended for cutlery. The floral motifs are embedded in the resin and then revealed through the artisan’s craftsmanship and the handle’s finish.

The fact that they are manufactured in our workshops in Langogne is another key selling point: these materials are made in France by a family-owned business that has specialized in supplies for cutlers since 1992.

These inlays thus allow us to offer a personalized knife, whose design can be chosen based on the customer’s tastes, a special occasion, or the identity the cutler wishes to give to their creation.
