Laguiole Traditional 12 cm Knife Thuya

Rated 5.0 out of 5
Based on 1 review

1 - In Stock

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 Thuya Burl is a natural material famous for its dense clusters of "eyes" and rich, swirling grain, no two handles are alike. The knife pictured in these photos is the exact one you will receive. This ensures that the specific depth and unique figure of the wood you select is precisely what will arrive for your collection.

Handle Character: This model is adorned with genuine Thuya Burl (Tetraclinis articulata) scales. Sourced from the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, Thuya is a rare and prestigious wood harvested from the tree's root. It is prized for its high-contrast aesthetic, featuring a vibrant reddish-brown base peppered with hundreds of tiny, dark knots known as "eyes." Beyond its visual splendor, Thuya is a naturally aromatic wood with a pleasant, cedar-like fragrance. Its high density and oil content allow it to be polished to a mirror-like luster, offering a silky, substantial feel that is synonymous with high-end artisanal luxury.

Shopping for a unique pocket knife not only holds the promise of ownership but the excitement of finally beholding an item admired through a screen. However, all too often, what was envisioned and what is unboxed bear a startling, sometimes painful discrepancy.

You will receive the actual folding knife shown in the photos.
No one wants to view photos of a beautiful and unique knife and receive something not even close to the representative image; this is why we take pictures of each piece. Select your One-Of-A-Kind knife!

Things to Look For
The file work on the springs (top of handle) are individually hand filled by a French artisan, therefore all are different. Additionally, two handles made from the same material can have very different patterns.

Pocket Knife

Pocket Knives are designed for cutting only. Please do not use it as a screwdriver, crowbar, or wood chisel, as this can cause irreversible damage and void the warranty.

Corkscrews

Important Note on Use: Waiter-style corkscrews are designed for use with a secure grip on the bottle neck. Please do not use the tool by clamping the bottle between your knees and pulling the handle. This technique often applies excessive force, which is likely to bend the screw (worm) and will immediately void the product warranty.

To keep your pocket knife or corkscrew in top condition, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Lubricate Moving Parts: Periodically apply a few drops of lubricant to all moving parts. This ensures smooth operation and extends the life of your knife.
  2. Hand Wash Only: Always hand-wash your pocket knife. After washing, dry it quickly with a soft towel to prevent rust and corrosion.
  3. Recommended Lubricant: We highly recommend using Sentry-Solutions Tuf Glide for all our folding knives. It provides excellent lubrication and protection.

Important Note: Tuf Glide is not considered a "food-safe" product. Avoid using it on knives that come into contact with food.

By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your item remains reliable and ready for your next adventure.
