Root wood is costly to salvage, because the machines used for it could be destroyed on a stone that cannot be seen. Even though Thuja is called the tree of life, the false cypress is poisonous in all parts and to all creatures. However, when processed into handle shells, there is no danger in their use.
The LUXE series of FORGE DE LAGUIOLE differs by the higher quality attributes. The guilloches made by hand on the resort with awl and file extend to the back of the blade.
A model with 11 cm handle length made of the wood of thuja with a blade of carbon steel, which, as always, is not stainless. Collectors like that. Metal pins inlaid in the scales form the shepherd's cross. Really Starck!
At an altitude of around 1300 meters, French designer and architect Philippe Starck has created its headquarters on behalf of FORGE DE LAGUIOLE. An aluminum facade with a blade rising sixty feet into the sky. More than one hundred people work there on the production of the most exclusive and expensive knives. It takes five to six years to learn how to make such a knife. And always from one hand, from the beginning to the end. The FORGE DE LAGUIOLE manufactory was founded in 1987. Because of their outstanding quality, their knifemakers are honored with the highest awards that France has to give.
Natural materials vary in their appearance. Color and grain, but also the bee as well as the spring are different. Upon request, we will send you a photograph of the knives available for selection. Based on the photograph, you can choose according to your taste and we save the environment a return shipment.
