Laguiole Le Fidéle Pocket Knife with Corkscrew: French Elegance in Buffalo Horn
A Fusion of Noble Steel and Natural Horn
You will be captivated by the handle at first touch. It is made of genuine buffalo horn (Corne véritable), a material that is hard, durable, and above all, beautiful. Each piece is unique thanks to the distinct grain of the horn, which has been polished to a high gloss. The knife blade is made of high-quality Swedish stainless steel Sandvik 12C27. This steel is legendary in the cutlery world – it holds an edge superbly, is tough, and at the same time easy to sharpen. Moreover, it is ideal for contact with food as it does not transfer any metallic taste.
The spine of the knife is adorned with traditional guilloche work (engraving) and the iconic "bee" (or fly), which serves as the spring stop and is the hallmark of genuine Laguiole knives. A steel corkscrew is elegantly integrated directly into the handle spine. The blade mechanism is a so-called slipjoint – the blade is not secured by a mechanical lock but is held in the open position by a strong back spring. This is typical for this type of traditional knife and is perfectly safe for normal cutting tasks.

How to Care for This Gem
This knife is made of natural materials and therefore deserves your care. Never put it in the dishwasher! Hot water and aggressive chemicals would irreparably destroy the horn, causing it to whiten and crack. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth after use and dry it. If you cut acidic foods (citrus, tomatoes), rinse the blade immediately. It is advisable to polish the horn from time to time with a drop of vegetable oil to prevent it from drying out and to maintain its shine. Lubricate the pivot with fine oil to keep the mechanism smooth.
