I was pleasantly surprised when my knife arrived. I knew they looked great online, but seeing the quality, and standard of finish in front of me was next level! Beautifully sharpened too. Very tempted to buy another one if I'm honest! Great work, and thanks again.
Beautiful, craftmanship. I can't keep my hands off it. It's a real fidget. will be something I carry for the rest of my life. Thank you Forge de Laguiole.
Hi Torsten,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and we are so glad you love your folding knife! It has been a pleasure to assist you with your purchase and we appreciate your kind review.
I’ve had a penknife in my pocket pretty much my whole life. I‘m retiring next month and I thought I’d buy myself a reward for 40 plus years at the grindstone. I selected a 12 cm briar handled model and I’m absolutely delighted with my ‘retirement pressie’ - so much better than a gold watch!! I’ve had many, many knives over the years and this is without doubt the very best I’ve had in my pocket ever. I’m looking forward to many years using it - gardening, fishing and opening up my grandchildren’s presents….
Bravo Laguoile Forge - fantastic.
Absolutely beautiful knife.
I got this for my fathers 70th birthday, and had it engraved with his initials. although it took approximately 6 weeks for the engraved one (1 week without) it was definitely worth it, and my dad loved it!
Rachel also kept me well informed of the timelines and provided all options for customisation.
