Each FORGE DE LAGUIOLE knife takes several hours or even days to manufacture. Over 40 successive steps are needed to realize one.

The quality of the finish, the strength of the blade and the spring, the thickness of the bolsters and plates, as well as the accuracy of the calibration are the elements that contribute to its longevity. Forge de Laguiole integrates all these manufacturing steps. The blades are forged and tempered on-site at Forge de Laguiole. Each model is assembled and shaped by the same cutler: One man, one knife.

The shape of the knife must respect the general outline determined by the cutlers of the nineteenth century. Today that view inspires many designers. Forge de Laguiole manufacture offers several types of forged steels to satisfy lovers of traditional patterns and those of more modern knives. Carbon steel is the oldest.

The new T12 stainless steel was designed specifically for the Forge and holds its luster and edge superbly.
