Laguiole Traditional 12 cm Knife Amourette

The Laguiole Traditional 12 cm is the quintessential size for the classic French folding knife. Substantial and perfectly balanced, the 12 cm size makes this model an ideal folding steak knife, allowing you to bring the precision and elegance of French cutlery to any dining table. This model features an individually hand-filed spring, with the artisan carving unique patterns into the steel. Because these spring tops are all individually filed and unique, no two knives share the same decorative work, making your knife a one-of-a-kind masterpiece of functional art.

Individual Photography: Because Amourette is a natural timber with a highly distinct and varied "reptilian" pattern, we provide high-resolution photography for every individual piece. The knife pictured in these photos is the exact one you will receive. This ensures that the specific contrast and speckling of the wood you select is precisely what enters your collection.

Handle Character: This model is adorned with scales of genuine Amourette, also known as Snakewood (Brosimum guianense). Sourced primarily from the tropical forests of South America, Amourette is one of the world's rarest, densest, and most expensive woods. It is celebrated for its remarkable natural figure, featuring dark, reddish-brown spots and markings that strikingly resemble a snake's scales. The wood is exceptionally heavy and hard, polishing to a high, gem-like luster. Its combination of structural density and exotic visual rhythm makes it a top-tier choice for prestigious artisanal knives.
