French Home Laguiole Connoisseur Steak Knives

No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. To preserve the natural olive wood handles and the integrity of the hammered stainless steel, we recommend hand washing and drying them immediately after use.

These connoisseur-style knives are larger and more substantial than standard steak knives, measuring 10 inches in total length. Their weighted, full-tang construction provides a professional feel similar to those used in traditional French steak houses.

These knives feature a straight edge. This design is preferred by many culinary enthusiasts because it provides a cleaner, smoother cut through meat compared to serrated blades, which can sometimes tear fibers.

Full-tang construction means the metal of the blade extends through the entire length of the handle. This provides superior balance, durability, and stability, ensuring the knife feels sturdy and secure in your hand while cutting.

Because olive wood is a natural material, it can dry out over time. To keep the handles looking their best, you may occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil to nourish the wood and prevent cracking.
