Black Eclipse – Full Carbon Fiber Laguiole Knife – Chiseled Bee & Honeycomb Spring

Laguiole en Aubrac Knife in Black Carbon Fiber – “Black Eclipse”

From the heart of the Aubrac region, the master knife makers of Laguiole en Aubrac have crafted a strikingly modern piece: “Black Eclipse.” This full-handle Laguiole knife blends minimalist sophistication with the mechanical poetry of traditional craftsmanship. A tribute to shadow and form, this knife breaks from convention to embrace a radical elegance rooted in silence, precision, and power.

The carbon fiber handle, with its silky matte finish and deep graphite tone, offers a sensation reminiscent of obsidian or volcanic glass. Lightweight yet incredibly robust, this high-performance material is not only technically advanced, but also aesthetically pure—enhancing the sculptural beauty of the piece with its woven texture and satin shimmer.

The spring, masterfully hand-chiseled, reveals a rhythmic honeycomb pattern—rounded, tactile, and fluid—like cells slowly filled by unseen bees. At its crest, the forged bee emerges: linear wings, subtly textured body, and a finely hammered head, as if caught mid-flight. Without bolsters, the silhouette flows uninterrupted, guiding the eye along its clean, contemporary lines.
