Les Trésors de Laguiole (the treasures from Laguiole)
My studio-workshop is in the heart of the Aubrac, in the original Laguiole area. This is where I work and I offer my range of exclusive and collectible knives and fine cutlery made with the quality and expertise of various techniques such as forging, engraving, sculpture, ivory carving, all based on the Laguiole knife traditions...
My Philosophy
Make knives for the pleasure of buyers and my personal pleasure by giving the best of myself to each of my knives, with regard for the best materials and the best manufacturing techniques, I do not manufacture weapons and I do not like war, I do not claim to be perfect, I'm just a man with my qualities and my faults, I love life and its pleasures, all tastes are in nature, I create knives in harmony and respect for the tradition of the Laguiole knife.
