Couteau Pliant Christian Ghion – Flat

Rated 5.0 out of 5
Based on 11 reviews

The Christian Ghion "Flat" 9 cm Pocket Knife is a masterpiece of modern industrial design, merging the traditional soul of Laguiole with an ultra-slim, minimalist silhouette. Designed by the renowned French architect Christian Ghion, this folding knife is engineered for the modern gentleman seeking a discreet yet incredibly sturdy everyday carry (EDC) knife.

Crafted entirely from forged T12 steel, the "Flat" model lives up to its name with a remarkably thin profile that disappears into a pocket or suit jacket. Despite its slender build, the dual-liner construction (forged T12 and cold-forged brass) lends a surprisingly substantial, balanced weight. Like all Forge de Laguiole instruments, each knife is handcrafted from start to finish in the village of Laguiole, France, by a single master artisan.

Fact! Situated in the village of Laguiole, France, Forge de Laguiole is home to approximately 100 employees and stands as the nation's most distinguished Laguiole knife producer.
