Steeped in history and anecdote for over two centuries, the Laguiole knife is a useful companion for both pleasure and labor.

If it’s been given to you as a gift, tradition dictates that you pay a coin to the person who gave it to you.

The connoisseur will never close his Laguiole by snapping the blade to avoid damaging the edge of the blade and the spring, in keeping with the Aveyron proverb:

“silent spring will live better

This explains why your Laguiole knife has a stop.

In those days, only the patriarch was allowed to rattle his blade at the end of a meal to ask the family to clear the table!
