Table knives Densified Ash handle "Passedat" Designed by Ghion

Designed by French designer Christian Ghion, the Forge de Laguiole ‘Passédat’ Table Knife is a tribute to the world of ‘haute’ cuisine and the sea. Created exclusively for renowned chef Gérald Passédat and his Michelin-starred Marseilles restaurant, Le Petit Nice, this knife embodies elegance, functionality, and maritime inspiration.

With its full handle in densified ash and a shiny finish, the ‘Passédat’ knife is both refined and durable. The bolster-less handle, shaped like the hull of a sailboat, flows seamlessly into the fluid blade, creating a silhouette that is as beautiful as it is practical. Designed for balance and precision, this knife enhances the dining experience with its ergonomic feel and striking aesthetics.

"The challenge was to design an object strongly evocative of the marine environment and therefore imbued with the personality of Gérald Passédat, but also carrying the DNA of Forge de Laguiole," explains Christian Ghion. The result is a knife that captures the essence of the Mediterranean, the artistry of fine dining, and the unparalleled craftsmanship of Forge de Laguiole.
