Handcrafted from exclusive materials

Every Laguiole Avantage steak knife is made by a single craftsman from start to finish. The blade is made from stainless 14C28N Sandvik steel with a hardness of 58–59 HRC, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and resilience. The hand-forged spring in Z20c13 steel features an integrated blade stop that protects the knife's edge. The iconic bee is not attached as a separate piece, but forged directly into the spring and hand-decorated – a true mark of quality. The knife handle is made from rare pistachio wood from southern France, whose core displays a remarkable colour palette ranging from olive green to purple and copper-brown hues with distinctive grain markings.

Perfect balance between form and function

Weighing 90 grams with an overall length of 23.5 cm (13 cm when folded), the knife offers an optimal balance between weight and manoeuvrability. The 110 mm blade length provides precise control when cutting through even the toughest cuts of meat. The construction with traditional silver nickel rivets ensures a solid assembly that will last for many years. Each knife has its own unique character thanks to the natural wood, making it both a practical tool and a piece of craftsmanship art for your dining table.
