Sleek and timeless, the Laguiole knife remains the undisputed star of French cutlery. At Fontenille Pataud, we chose to go beyond the standard to offer you a genuinely artisanal and very high-end Laguiole, featuring unparalleled finishing and design quality.
The entirety of our production is proudly 100% Made in France, guaranteeing an excellence only found in the cutlery tradition of Thiers:
Artisanal Authenticity: Every knife stands out with its massive forged bee (not welded) and its hand-chased backspring (ciselé à main levée), a signature of artistic craftsmanship.
High-Performance Blade: The blade is made from 14C28N steel, renowned for its hardness and corrosion resistance, ensuring your Laguiole knife maintains a durable cutting edge.
We combine tradition with key technical innovations to ensure the lasting value of your investment:
Fixed Blade Stop: The backspring is fitted with a fixed blade stop pin. This essential technical feature protects the cutting edge when the knife is closed (even if the blade is "clapped shut"), ensuring your Laguiole maintains its impeccable sharpness.
Opt for superior authenticity and quality. Your next artisanal Laguiole knife is waiting at Fontenille Pataud.
