Laguiole Sommelier Wood Effect in Box

This folding Laguiole waiter's knife with imitation olive wood handle is made in the hundred-year-old French family business Jean Dubost. The timeless, classic model was specially developed around 1920 for waiters in the leading Parisian cafés. It is a popular tool that still performs very well and hardly deviates from the original design. The spiral is made of strong stainless winding wire with a sharp point, which prevents the cork from crumbling or breaking. The handle functions as a lever and is made of plastic with a wood print. The handle also contains a small folding blade with which the capsule can be cut. The waiter's knife is fully produced in France and packed in a luxurious and handy storage box made of wood and provided with a certificate of authenticity. The ideal gift for both the professional sommelier and other wine enthusiasts!

About Laguiole Jean Dubost

The Jean Dubost family business was founded in 1920. Today it is run by the 4th generation that combines the traditional way of making knives with modern industrial production techniques.

The Laguiole Jean Dubost range is entirely made in France. Apart from a few tropical woods, all parts, such as the steel and the handles, also come from France. In the factory, raw steel (AISI 420 standard with hardness HRC 52/56) is transformed into a razor-sharp, glossy polished blade in a process of 9 production stages. Every year, 1.5 million Laguiole steak knives are made, almost half of which are destined for export.

Unfortunately, there is also an imitation Laguiole that is mainly produced in China. Although often not immediately visible from the outside (the logo, the honey bee, is even copied), the material and workmanship is of considerably lower quality. Imitation is also easy to recognize. If the steel blade of the knife is not explicitly engraved with France, the knife was not produced in France and is therefore not authentic.
