Product Description
Laguiole is a type of legendary dining implement with a blade that folds into the handle, just like a pocketknife. They were invented in the 1800s as a tool for farmers in rural France. This set of three ebony wood-handled knives from French-based Laguiole is designed, like other Laguiole knives, with a sloping blade that ends in a very sharp point. The handle is equally stylized and is based on an 18th century pistol grip. What makes these 4.25 oz. knives a true cut above, however, is that the blade and handle are thicker and wider than any other Languiole-styled knife in the world. This improvement, along with a manufacturing process that guarantees quality and long life, burnishes the Languiole legend into a even finer edge and earns our hearty endorsement.
