Laguiole XS 9 cm Guilloche Ram Horn Handle

1 in stock

This elegantly designed pen knife combines compactness with a precision lock-back mechanism, ensuring a secure blade lock. With its small size, the Laguiole XS 9 cm (3.5 inches when closed) is perfect for a gentleman's suit pocket or a lady's handbag. The bee and spring of this knife are fabricated from a single piece of stainless steel, showcasing intricate craftsmanship. Along with the spring file work, the liners, and blade's top are also exquisitely chiseled.

Guilloche: The Guilloché series beautifully displays intricate chiseling techniques expertly applied to the spring, both liners (top and bottom) and the entire top edge of the blade. The outcome is nothing short of a mesmerizingly crafted masterpiece.

The "Gilles®" Fontenille Pataud knife collection is widely regarded as some of the finest French pocket knives available, leaving no doubt about their quality. Every knife is proudly 100% Made in France.

Technical aspects: The Teflon-assisted lockback system ensures smooth and effortless opening and closing. Additionally, the knife boasts a sturdy, hardened blade stop to prevent the blade's edge from touching the spring's inner area. These meticulous details, combined with unparalleled craftsmanship and attention to precision, make each knife genuinely unique. Fontenille Pataud knives are proudly made in France with utmost quality and dedication.

 

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.

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.

Ram horn tip - France

The tip of the horn is the hardest and most durable, Inferior horn handles are made from the bottom of the horn which will warp with time. 

Due to the uneven characteristic of Ram Horn, the metal rivets found on the handle may not be completely flush with this unique handle material.

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.

Most inexpensive Laguiole pocket knives found on the market have a soldered bee. The process of adding the bee to the spring by soldering it saves time and money, this is why the cost of soldered bee knives can be substantially less. The original Laguiole knives had forged bees.

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.
