Carved from the quiet soul of a forest, this knife carries the elegance of something ancient. The Aubrac beechwood, with its subtle grain, seems to whisper stories of wind and roots. Light plays gently across its surface, like sun filtered through old canopies. But beneath this quiet warmth lies a language etched in mystery.

The bee, hand-sculpted with care, features full, domed wings that cradle its slender body like a woven shelter. The spine is engraved with rounded honeycomb-like cells, and the spaces in between are delicately hammered, pulsing with texture. Each bolster is carved with sharp, balanced triangles, as if forming part of a forgotten code. Together, they evoke the feeling of a key—something that could unlock more than just a blade.

Laguiole Pocket Knife in Aubrac Beech Wood

Crafted with precision in the heart of Aubrac, the “Sacred Beech” model pays tribute to the serenity of local forests and the timeless elegance of traditional cutlery. This knife features a handle in light beechwood, subtly veined and carefully polished for balance and refinement.

The spring is adorned with round, beehive-like cells, each one finely engraved and gently hammered in its recesses, creating a natural texture. The bolsters are decorated with a series of engraved triangles, like symbolic keys or fragments of an ancient language. The sculpted bee, unique and distinctive, displays wide, curved wings that gently enclose its center—like a protective cradle suspended midair. A knife that speaks of mystery, geometry, and precision.

Aubrac Beechwood

Aubrac beech is a noble and locally sourced wood, prized for its durability and fine grain. Harvested from the forests of the Aubrac plateau in southern France, it is a material of choice for traditional knife handles.

Beechwood handles stand out for their natural elegance and solid feel. The wood’s fine, uniform grain brings a refined aesthetic and a comfortable grip to each piece. Its soft, pale tone is often highlighted by subtle natural patterns that enhance its understated charm.

Appreciated not only for its beauty but also for its workability, Aubrac beech allows cutlers to sculpt precise, high-quality handles. It is a wood of balance—simple yet refined—that gives shape to knives rooted in tradition and made to last.
