Laguiole en Aubrac Laguiole Sommelier knife jade stone
€339.00
Available, delivery time: 1-3 days
A stylish, single-edged Laguiole sommelier knife, handcrafted in the traditional French smithy of Laguiole en Aubrac. It is made by a cutler following time-honoured traditions, involving many stages of skilled craftsmanship. The handle scales are crafted from reconstructed, stabilised jade. This handle material, which feels comfortable in the hand, is carefully polished to create a smooth surface. The large bee is intricately hand-guilloché. The sommelier knife is polished to a high standard throughout.
The waiter’s knife sits comfortably and securely in the hand. The solid corkscrew allows for effortless and clean uncorking, whilst the sharply ground foil cutter facilitates the precise removal of the foil. In upmarket restaurants, professional waiter’s knives of this type are the preferred choice – valued for their durability, functionality and elegant design. The so-called ‘soul of the spiral’ (the space between the coils) ensures even force distribution and prevents even longer corks from snapping. The leverage is perfectly balanced, making it considerably easier to pull out the cork.

Accessory Items
Max Capdebarthes is a master leather craftsman located in the tiny (pop. 800) 12th-century village of Sauveterre de Rouergue in the south west of France. Each sheath is made from carefully selected genuine cowhide. Mr. Max Capdebarthes is considered by most knife manufacturers as the best leather craftsman in Europe, perhaps the world. About this sheath: This full grain leather sheath is designed to hold any 12 or 13 cm handle size knife. This trifold knife sheath features dual concealed metal snaps closure. Double stitching can be found on all stress areas to provide years of use without stitch failure. This sheath is made of 1/8 inch thick ultra soft cowhide full-grain leather. The leather sheaths are available in the colours black, maya and choco. This sheath is for: Any 12,13 cm knives Outer dimensions: 15 cm x 5,5 cm Consider this: Max Capdebarthes only works with full grain leather which is the highest quality grade of leather money can buy. This leather type comes from the top layer of the hide and includes all of the natural grain and natural marks. It is more expensive to buy and more difficult for to work with, as a result this is reflected in the cost to the consumer. Break-In period: Your new sheath may appear to be a little stiff at first, this is normal. As full grain leather ages it will adapt to the shape of your knife. Over time, the sheath will develop a much sought-after patina and a unique character that cannot be duplicated. The more you use it, the better it will look and feel.100% made in France
