Laguiole Traditional 12 cm Knife Walnut

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 Walnut is a natural timber with significant variations in grain pattern, color depth, and figure, 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 aesthetic and warmth you select is precisely what enters your collection.

Handle Character: This model is adorned with genuine Walnut (Noyer) scales. A hallmark of fine European woodworking, Walnut is prized for its exceptional strength and its rich, earthy palette. The grain often exhibits a beautiful movement of dark-chocolate swirls and deep-amber highlights. This wood is warm to the touch and offers a refined finish that develops a profound, personalized patina over years of use, making it a favorite for those who value understated, classical elegance.
