Handle scales made of desert ironwood. Due to its slow growth, desert ironwood from the Arizona desert is one of the hardest and densest wood types. It has a beautiful gold-brown colour with dark streaks. Due to its high density it is extremely resistant to moisture. Stainless steel bolsters and blade satin-finished.
Blades left with forged skin made of easy-to-sharpen carbon steel XC75, not rustproof, hardened to 54 HRC. Supplied with linen bag.
The original by Laguiole en Aubrac
The Laguiole folding knife is an icon of French design. As early as 1829, this knife shape was created in the small mountain village of the same name, Laguiole, in southwest France. The trademarks of this classic knife are the ergonomic shape of blade and handle, the »bee« stop and the fine engraving on the spring. All Laguiole handles have the traditional »Shepherd's cross« made of fine silver ornamental rivets (excluding stag horn handles). Shepherds who spent the summers with their flocks in the Auvergne highlands used to stick the blade into the ground and pray in front of the cross. Feather and bee are forged from one piece and artfully decorated by hand (needle etched), each blacksmith having his own engraving.
Note: Pay attention to the origin of the knife when buying. Beware of knives manufactured in China or Pakistan, because the name »Laguiole« cannot be protected. The »LOG« (Laguiole Origine Guarantee) stamp guarantees that the knife originates from the genuine Laguiole area and is produced using traditional methods.
