Like a fragment of the cosmos fallen into your hand, this knife carries the memory of distant stars. Its dark albizia wood handle gleams softly, as if charred by celestial fire. Between its shadows, red spacers glow faintly—like the fading trail of a meteor slicing through the night.

The spine is etched with thick, deliberate lines, each groove revealing finely hammered textures within the empty spaces—an echo of the fractured patterns found in meteorite cores. These same cosmic motifs reappear on the four bolsters, hand-engraved with sculptural precision. The bee, rounded and delicate, rests with plump, finely hammered wings, its body forming a graceful figure eight—symbol of orbit, of infinity, of perfect balance in motion.

Laguiole Pocket Knife in Dark Albizia “Stellar Wake”

Handcrafted in the Laguiole en Aubrac workshop, the “Stellar Wake” model is a knife of rare presence. Its handle, carved from dark albizia wood, features deep grain patterns that absorb and reflect light like the surface of a distant celestial body. Red liners accentuate its silhouette with a subtle gleam, like the trail of a meteor burning through the sky.

The spine and bolsters are engraved with strong, angular lines whose recessed areas are delicately hammered. These textured patterns evoke the fragmented core of a meteorite—mysterious, ancient, and silent. The sculpted bee displays full, slightly domed wings, finely hammered for texture, while its body forms a slender figure-eight, like an orbit frozen in time. “Stellar Wake” is not only a tool, it’s a tribute to cosmic geometry and earthly craftsmanship.

The Laguiole en Aubrac workshop celebrates here the union of cosmic inspiration and age-old savoir-faire.

Each element of this Laguiole pocket knife has been shaped by hand, making it a truly singular creation. The handle is made of dark-toned albizia wood, subtly grained and enhanced by red spacers that add visual tension and depth. The spring is engraved with bold linear motifs, with the empty spaces between them finely hammered, evoking the unique texture of celestial rock formations.

The four bolsters mirror these engraved patterns with sculpted precision. The hand-engraved bee is particularly striking, with rounded wings delicately hammered to create soft texture. Its body curves into a balanced figure-eight shape, reinforcing the sense of cosmic harmony present throughout the piece. A knife that blends celestial inspiration with the fine craftsmanship of Laguiole en Aubrac.

albizia wood

Albizia Wood

Albizia wood is a rare and refined exotic species, known for its exceptional lightness and delicate natural grain. Native to tropical regions, it is highly valued in artisanal knife making for its smooth texture and distinctive appearance.

Handles made from Albizia stand out for their subtle elegance and organic beauty. The wood’s shades range from soft beige to deeper brown, often enhanced by fine dark veins that emphasize its natural character. Its light weight and silky feel make it particularly comfortable to hold, and well-suited to refined, well-balanced knives.

Beyond its aesthetics, Albizia is a wood that responds well to fine craftsmanship, allowing artisans to sculpt precise, durable pieces. Its warm tones and unique patterns add an element of rarity and character to every knife it adorns.
