Laguiole Sport MOF: The Large Secured Laguiole Knife, Market Benchmark
Created in 2003 by Robert Beillonnet, a double recipient of the prestigious Meilleur Ouvrier de France (MOF in 1997 and 2000) award, the Laguiole Sport knife by Fontenille Pataud has established itself as the undisputed benchmark for "large" Laguiole models.
Measuring at least 13 cm (closed), this model is the perfect marriage of the robustness needed for outdoor activities and the precision of a high-end mechanism, making it ideal for purchasing a secured large Laguiole knife.
Performance, Safety, and MOF Reliability
The enduring success of the Laguiole Sport is based on its superior technical design, guaranteeing uncompromising use:
-
Secured Precision Mechanism: The solid blade is perfectly locked in the open position thanks to a smooth precision mechanism. This system ensures completely safe use and pleasant handling.
-
Edge Protection (The Key Feature): The major innovation lies in the integrated solid fixed stop pin. This technical feature allows the knife to be closed quickly (to "clap" the blade shut) without damaging the cutting edge, guaranteeing the longevity of your high-end Laguiole knife.
Prestige Versions: Guilloché and Damascus Steel
The Laguiole Sport is available in finishes that elevate this model to collector's status:
-
Laguiole Sport Damascus: For lovers of exceptional blades, discover its version with a Damascus Steel Blade. These blades offer unique aesthetics and superior durability, perfect for collectors or the most demanding users.
-
Superior Guilloché Range: The GUILLOCHÉE range adds an artistic touch: in addition to the classic finish, the liners and the spine of the blade are hand-chiseled (ciselés). This guillochage transforms your Laguiole Sport into a true work of artisanal art.
Choose the Laguiole Sport Fontenille Pataud for an investment in a secured 13 cm Laguiole knife that has been the market benchmark for over two decades.
