MUST SEE! How Forge de Laguiole Knives are made.

Take a look at the uncontested highest quality Laguiole cutlery manufacturer in France.
Only a hand full of manufacturers produce handmade Laguiole pocket knives as well as Laguiole corkscrews in the village of Laguiole, France. The most famous of them all is "Forge de Laguiole" (Forge of Laguiole).
One needs to beware that a large number of "Laguiole" manufacturers in France and sadly in other countries are producing "cookie cutter" Laguiole cutlery that is mass produced and cheaply made.
The questions are; Where was your Laguiole knife really made and how? Does your Laguiole folding knife has a forged blade?

The Opinel is my favourite French pocket knife. The Laguiole is my favourite piece of French art.

The most beautifull and elegant shape of all the Laguiole knife manufacturers. The decoration too is kept to a reasonable level without becoming over the top and vulgar. I bought one in 1998 and it's still going strong.

Opinel is a safe tool, laguiole is a safe piece of art.

I have had my Laguiole knife a year or so now, and I enjoy using it, it is well made and beautifully designed. Mine was not well finished however, it had not seen quality control. That was disappointing. There was a ding in the edge of the blade, and the plates to each side of the spring had jagged burrs along their edges. Since I am a blacksmith these faults were not difficult to remedy, and I chose to finish the knife myself. I do wonder if it is cheaper to have a returns facility than an adequate quality control system ... This knife should NEVER have left the factory If Laguiole wish to present as a high quality manufacturer, they need to walk the walk as well as they talk the talk. As a smith, I put half an hour extra into everything I made, that did all my talking for me. Have the accountants staged a coup ?

Très bien!

[@ogstopper]

One of my Laguiole knives has an inverted cross in brass rivets on the handle. Why is that, please?

[@heybruzzy8498]

ogstopper Shepherds and such (not being able to make it to church) would stick the blade into something (a loaf of bread, maybe) thereby “righting” the cross and be able to pray...

@@heybruzzy8498 untrue it's just a tale invented by folks during the ages .

[@453421abcdefg12345]

What a ridiculous thing to say, thousands of Elephant die every year, what would you do, just let them rot in the bush ?

[@cmcc1971]
