Laguiole Traditional 12 cm Knife Black Horn Tip

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 Black Horn is a natural material with unique textures and subtle variations in depth and luster, we provide high-resolution photography for every individual piece. The knife pictured in these photos is the exact one you will receive. This ensures that the specific character and deep obsidian finish of the horn you select is precisely what enters your collection.

Handle Character: This model is adorned with genuine Black Horn Tip (Pointe de Corne Noire) scales. Sourced from the solid, dense tip of the horn rather than the hollow base, this material is prized for its exceptional durability and its deep, monochromatic intensity. While appearing as a solid, midnight black at first glance, the polished surface often reveals subtle, organic depth and a mirror-like finish that is warm to the touch. This highly traditional material has been a cornerstone of French cutlery for centuries, offering a sleek and timeless aesthetic.
