Highly polished steak knife with buffalo horn handle
In the Aubrac region of Southern France, you'll find the small village of Laguiole, which has become world-renowned for its knives with the characteristic blade profile that has become the symbol of what a good steak knife is.
Laguiole en Aubrac produces some of the absolute best of their kind. It is important to understand that while there are many different manufacturers, only a few of them are actually located in Laguiole. Here, it's all about good old-fashioned manual labor and fine craftsmanship. A knife - or any other piece of cutlery - from Laguiole en Aubrac is handcrafted. For the handles, a variety of natural materials are used, such as different horns, antlers, and of course, wood species from all over the world.
This steak knife is a true classic. The handle is made of black buffalo horn, which, with its polishing, becomes completely mirror-smooth. A knife that will look great on any table setting.
A Laguiole en Aubrac steak knife has a blade made of Swedish 12C27 steel, which is a good stainless alloy. It is sharpened to a fine edge at the workshop and is easy to resharpen when needed, which we are happy to assist you with.
The steel in the knife blade, as well as the natural materials and the degree of genuine craftsmanship in the knife, are some of the things that distinguish Laguiole en Aubrac from the many other manufacturers on the market. Here you don't just get a knife; you buy a small piece of history.
The knife is not dishwasher safe!
Knives from Laguiole en Aubrac are made with natural materials. Therefore, the knife you purchase will not necessarily be exactly like the one shown in the picture here.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
