Laguiole Traditional 12 cm Knife Cattle Bone

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 Cattle Bone is a natural material with subtle organic variations, including unique grain densities and soft tonal shifts, 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 luster and character of the bone you select is precisely what enters your collection.

Handle Character: This model is adorned with genuine Cattle Bone (Os de Bœuf) scales. A material steeped in tradition, bone has been used in French cutlery for centuries due to its extreme durability and smooth, porcelain-like feel. It is characterized by its elegant, to soft ivory palette, which possesses a natural depth that synthetic materials cannot replicate. Over time and with regular use, the bone will develop a subtle, dignified patina, further enhancing its smooth texture and classic aesthetic. It is a dense, substantial material that balances the knife perfectly in the hand.
