Laguiole G.David "ANTAN" Folding Knife

The Laguiole d'Antan, crafted from walnut wood (ANT for the "Antan" range and NO for "Noyer," meaning walnut), is made by the renowned Thiers-based cutlery maker Arbalète Genès David. It is distinguished by its traditional, refined, and robust aesthetic, reflecting the expertise of the Thiers region.

This is the Laguiole Antan knife by Genès David, perfect for your outdoor activities (cutting bread, cheese, or meat). It features a yataghan-shaped blade made of 12C27 stainless steel with a slip joint. The Laguiole Genès name is engraved on the blade. The knife opens via a notch in the blade. It has a full flat grind and is easy to sharpen.

At the base of the blade is the forged tang (the "mouche," or fly) on which the traditional bee rests when the knife is open.

The Laguiole d'Antan knife, made of walnut wood (ANT for the "Antan" range and NO for "Noyer," meaning walnut), is crafted by the renowned Thiers cutlery maker Arbalète Genès David. Walnut wood handle: The knife features a matte stainless steel bolster at the front of the handle (near the blade pivot). The walnut handle extends seamlessly from this bolster to the back of the knife. The bolster protects the knife's most vulnerable area (around the pivot point) from impacts in case of a fall. Walnut wood offers a much darker, more understated, and masculine finish than olive wood. The shades range from light brown to dark chocolate, with elegant dark grain.

Rustic appearance.

The "1M" designates one bolster.

A compromise between the modern look of the matte stainless steel at the front and the rustic warmth of the olive wood.
