Forge de Laguiole 12 cm Corkscrew Knife Horn Tip

2 in stock

This is a Laguiole Corkscrew knife, also called a Laguiole 2 piece. 
The Laguiole knife of the 1880s was modified to include a corkscrew in response to an increased demand for corked wine bottles in urban society. Furthermore, those from Aveyron who migrated to Paris in the 1950 and worked in Cafés yearned for their heritage, café owners and servers were proud to show off their 2-piece knife in the capital city.

Crafted entirely by hand in the village of Laguiole in France, this knife boasts a forged T12 steel blade. Forge de Laguiole knives stand out as unrivaled in quality among all other Laguiole styles in the market today. Each masterpiece is crafted wholly by the same skilled artisan, guaranteeing pride in the final piece.

What is a Forged Bee? You can recognize a forged bee when you look just below it, where it meets the decorated spring. If you do not see any gaps, it's a good sign that the bee and spring were forged from the same piece of metal. You can also recognize a soldered bee by noticing a straight gap/ridge where the bee meets the spring.

How to Maintain Your Pocket Knife

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

To keep your pocket knife 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 pocket knife remains reliable and ready for your next adventure.
