More about the blade stop
Is it possible to clap shut your Laguiole without damaging the blade?
Thanks to advances made in the cutlery industry, it is perfectly possible to clap shut your Laguiole without damaging the blade.
A bladestop is inserted into the spring in all our Laguiole design models. The heel of the blade closes against the bladestop located underneath the bee, which acts as a shock absorber. Your blade is therefore preserved perfectly intact!
In old farms, the man of the house would clap shut his Laguiole to show that the meal was over.
Did you know?
Laguiole, originally pronounced Layole, owes its name to the town of Laguiole in Aveyron, which continues to produce knives to this day. The celebrated knife has experienced renewed interest since 60s, but it is mainly manufactured by cutlers in the Thiers region.
