Laguiole en Aubrac knife 1 piece 12cm Double plates and spring Handcarved Ironwood burl handle 2 brushed stainless steel bolsters Damascus blade

This 12 cm Laguiole knife embodies an authentic vision of traditional cutlery, where rustic elegance meets high-level craftsmanship. Designed for discerning enthusiasts who appreciate the nobility of materials, it reflects the heritage and artisanal precision of the Aubrac region.

The handle showcases a subtle harmony between ironwood burl, a dense, textured wood known for its durability and warm tactile feel, and brushed stainless steel bolsters. This contrast of raw and refined elements creates a perfect balance between timeless rustic charm and modern sophistication, highlighting the natural grain of the wood and the soft sheen of the finely brushed steel.

Its double-plate construction ensures strength, balance, and long-term durability. The liners and backspring are delicately hand-guilloché, offering a discreet yet refined ornamental touch. The forged bee, emblematic of traditional Laguiole craftsmanship, crowns the knife with distinction and character.

At the heart of the piece lies a striking Damascus blade, forged from multiple layers of steel. Its undulating patterns evoke the movement of natural elements and the intensity of the forge, combining cutting performance, hardness, and visual depth.

On the left side of the handle, the Shepherd’s Cross, subtly inlaid, pays tribute to the pastoral traditions of the Aubrac plateau.

This Laguiole knife is destined for those who value authentic, high-end rustic craftsmanship, where the raw beauty of natural materials meets the finesse of traditional know-how.
