Stainless Steel Chef Knife with Oak Wood Handle - Made in France

Jean Dubost, a fourth-generation, family-run company established in 1920 in the south of France, designs, manufactures, and shapes artisan flatware and knives, offering a difference in quality you can see and feel. Their Laguiole chef knife gives your kitchen a classic European feel, with a sharp, high-grade stainless steel blade that has been stamped, ground, and polished by master cutlers through over 25 different manual production stages. The blade is then riveted to an oak wood handle, giving each knife its own character.

Inspired by a traditional peasant tool, the Laguiole knife has been used for over 200 years, and each piece in the expanded cutlery collection carries the mark of a bee for authenticity, originally part of Napoleon Bonaparte's imperial seal. To distinguish an authentic Laguiole from a counterfeit, look for the brand name/country of origin stamp and the included certificate of authenticity, as counterfeits are made outside of France and often use low-end steel.

Micro-serrated Laguiole knives do not require sharpening and will retain a sharp cutting edge for the lifetime of the knife. Most Jean Dubost products are dishwasher safe, however, hand washing is recommended to extend the life of the product, and pieces with wood handles or brass accents are not dishwasher safe.

Explore the Laguiole Knife Collection, which includes steak knives with mixed wood, stainless steel, ivory ABS, and assorted linen ABS handles, all featuring the iconic Laguiole design and quality craftsmanship. These knives make the perfect gift for the modern kitchen with a classic European flair, with each implement hand-polished and finished for a difference you can see and feel.
