Forge de Laguiole Steak Knife

Yes. Every knife in this set is entirely handmade in the historic village of Laguiole, France, by a single artisan to ensure consistent quality and craftsmanship.

No. Because these knives feature natural olive wood handles, they are not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing them with mild soap and drying them immediately to preserve the wood and the blade.

When a single craftsman handles the entire production process from start to finish, they maintain total control over the fit, finish, and balance of the knife. This results in a level of precision and consistency that mass-produced cutlery simply cannot match.

To keep the olive wood from drying out or cracking, you can occasionally apply a small amount of food-safe mineral oil or beeswax to the handles. This will help nourish the wood and maintain its natural luster.

Yes, each set includes an official authenticity certificate, confirming that the knives were produced by Forge de Laguiole in France. They also arrive in a dedicated gift box, making them well-protected for storage or gifting.

Each knife weighs approximately 3.7 ounces. This gives them a substantial, balanced feel in the hand that is noticeably more robust than lightweight, stamped-metal steak knives.
