Laguiole Knife “The Space” – Cosmos Collection – Elder Burl (Fire)

525€

This model pays tribute to the vast and mysterious void that surrounds us — the very space in which all celestial bodies move. The handle is crafted from stabilized elder burl, dyed in fiery red and black tones that evoke nebulae, solar flares, and cosmic turbulence. Each piece of wood displays swirling patterns, as if the grain itself mirrored distant galaxies being born and destroyed.

Designed in the Laguiole en Aubrac workshop, “The Space” embodies the tension between the unknown and the beautifully visible. With its custom cosmic motif and engraved spine, it merges traditional craftsmanship with a design language inspired by the stars. A knife of contrasts: warm and cold, grounded and infinite.

Description

The 12 cm handle, made from stabilized elder burl, is tinted in dramatic flame-like shades — deep reds, amber, and black. This palette, unique to each piece, calls to mind the glowing core of a star or the brilliant chaos of a supernova. The satin polish enhances the color transitions, adding visual depth and a soft tactile feel.

Its stainless steel blade has a satin finish that complements the wood’s glow. The spine of the knife is fully engraved with celestial patterns, while the top of the spring features a forged emblem representing “space” in abstract form. This knife stands out not only through its aesthetics, but also for what it symbolizes: mystery, movement, and the quiet immensity that surrounds us all.

Fire-Toned Elder Burl Handle

This handle is carved from stabilized elder burl, a rare and expressive wood known for its wild, swirling grain. In this version, it is dyed in fiery shades of red, orange, and black — reminiscent of supernovas, cosmic clouds, or solar eruptions.

The satin polish gives the surface a soft luster that enhances the organic complexity of the wood. Each knife is unique, its grain suggesting a fragment of galactic motion. The color variation and natural patterns make every handle a small universe unto itself.

As a natural material, variations in tone and texture are to be expected. Product images are provided for reference only.
