How to choose your Laguiole knife?
With or without a corkscrew ?
First, you need to know if you want a 1 piece Laguiole knife (single knife with blade)
or a 2-piece Laguiole knife (knife with blade and corkscrew).
The original Laguiole knife was a simple knife with blade. Purists often prefer this version because the shape of the Laguiole knife is preserved with purity.
Historically, the corkscrew was added to the knife around 1880 following the move to Paris of the Rouergats to work as lemonade makers.
It is therefore important to think about whether or not the corkscrew is useful because the grip of the knife is less good than with a simple knife.
The size of the Laguiole knife.
It is possible to choose several knife sizes ranging from 8 to 14 cm.
Please note that the size mentioned represents the size of the closed knife.
For example :
A 10 cm Laguiole knife will have a handle of 10 cm, a blade of 8.4 cm and therefore a total size of 18.4 cm
A 12cm Laguiole knife will have a 12cm handle, a 12cm blade, a 10cm blade and a total length of 22cm.
The 10 cm knife will often be used as a pocket knife. It is often associated with a more feminine knife.
The usual size is that of the 12 cm knife. This is an ideal size for use as a table knife.
Finally, larger sizes are for larger hands!!
How to recognize a real Laguiole knife handcrafted in the area of origin?
Laguiole is the name of a village located in the Aubrac region of France. Laguiole knives have been made there since the 19th century.
After the First World War, cutlery workshops in Thiers began making Laguiole knives, with some beginning to make knives industrially.
On Laguiole.com you will find the best Laguiole manufacturing workshops, namely, “Forge de Laguiole” manufactured within the village of Laguiole and “Laguiole en Aubrac” manufactured in the Laguiole area of origin in Espalion, the “Laguiole Arbalète” articles , workshop existing since 1829 manufacturer of exceptional knives in Thiers.
The best thing is to buy your Laguiole at the right price.
There is no miracle, if you buy an inexpensive product, you can be sure that the finish will be mediocre.
The price of a Laguiole knife is essentially due to the quality of the materials, the quality of finish and the time spent making each piece, which makes each Laguiole unique.
