FORGE DE LAGUIOLE

The handles, whether made of wood, horn, bone or from other rare materials such as mammoth teeth or stingray skin, are individually selected, sculpted and handset by our Master-Knifesmiths.

The monobloc, with its sober and elegant lines, is made in one piece in excellent steel forged at 1000°. It has a blade that combines the advantage of exceptional cutting performance with outstanding resistance to corrosion. The handle offers a particularly precise grip thanks to its shape.

The two bolsters (mitres) are forged and fixed on a metal liner, which will be drilled before the assembly. These massive steel bolsters help to protect the handle during daily use.

The Guillochage, a goldsmith’s skill, is the decoration composed of different line patterns, elaborated on the spine of the spring. Here, the bee and the spring are completely hand sculpted by our Master-Knifesmiths.

The manufacturing know-how of our Master-Knifesmiths combined with the quality of the steel guarantee the exceptional cutting edge and a long lifespan, which make the Original Forge de Laguiole® knives famous. The sharp cut provides sensations that flatter the senses and complete the pleasure of a lovely meal.

The blades are hot forged from French stainless steel and can have a shiny or matt finish.
