The Laguiole XS 9 cm Classic collection defines the modern Gentleman’s Knife—a sophisticated, compact tool designed for those who value heritage and discretion. Measuring just 9 cm (3.5 inches) when closed, these knives offer a perfectly non-threatening profile that fits seamlessly into a formal trouser pocket, suit jacket, or a lady’s handbag without adding bulk.

While small in stature, these "XS" models are built with the same mechanical precision as their larger counterparts. Each piece is handcrafted from start to finish by a single master artisan in Thiers, France, featuring a smooth, Teflon-assisted lock-back mechanism. This ensures the blade remains securely fixed during use, providing a level of safety and reliability rarely found in knives of this size.

Each knife in the Classic series showcases the iconic Laguiole silhouette with a forged bee and a hand-chiseled spring. Because we use authentic, natural materials like horn and premium woods, no two handles are identical. To ensure you find the perfect match for your style, every knife in this collection is individually photographed. The specific Gentleman's Knife you select is the exact one we will ship from our Jacksonville warehouse.
