A renowned master knifemaker, St\u00e9phane Rambaud was born in Lyon in 1968. Trained at the prestigious Nogent Cutlery School, he was awarded the Gold Medal for Best Apprentice in France in 1987, a distinction recognizing outstanding artisanal excellence. After a distinguished career within the French cutlery industry, he joined the Forge de Laguiole workshops in 2005. There, he creates exceptional folding knives, inspired by his own artistic vision or made to order, while remaining faithful to the aesthetics and spirit of the authentic Laguiole knife.<\/p>\n
Entirely handcrafted in our Laguiole workshops, this collector\u2019s knife is a one-of-a-kind piece whose every detail reflects the technical mastery and artistic sensitivity of its maker. Noble materials, meticulous finishes, and refined decorative work make this model a rare object designed to be treasured for generations.<\/p>\n
This 12 cm one-piece Laguiole folding knife stands out for its exceptional mammoth pulp handle, enhanced with a mammoth ivory veneer, creating a refined contrast between authenticity and modernity. Its spring and brass liners are finely crafted and hand-decorated, while the iconic Forge de Laguiole bee is reinterpreted in a contemporary style. The forged-finish steel blade highlights the nobility of traditional craftsmanship and is complemented by an elegant satin finish that enhances the natural beauty of the materials.<\/p>\n
