THE HANDLES

 

The FORGE DE LAGUIOLE offers various handle scales for its knives and the sommeliers.

 

 

 

 

 

HORN is one of the traditional and original material used for the handles. It is a natural raw material which grows again. However, cattle is nowadays often breeded without horns so this product is running short.

 

It is important to know that generally two different qualities of horn exist. The lower part of the buffalo horn also called “tube”or “corne cache” is hollow, as it grows on the bone-tenon of the skull. The tip is massive and thus also more robust. The proceeds of the tip compared to the proceeds of the remaining part are substantially lower and hence more expensive. When horn is called “genuine horn” one can be sure that it is horn from the lower part. The horn from the tip is specially marked and named “partie pleine”.

Our range offers three versions: Noir ( black ) Leo ( brown-spotted ) and Miel ( honey ).

 

 

 

 

 

Handle-scales made of rare-wood are available in a wide range. You may choose between:

amourette, bruyére, box-tree, ebony, juniper, olive-tree, palisander, pistachio and thuja.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Furthermore we offer you handle-scales fabricated of bone made from the skin-bone of cattle. Ivory ( licensed according to the species protection treaty ) is also available with some knives as well as primitive mammut.

 

 

 

 

STAMINA wood is the name for a type of wood stabilized with the help of synthetic resin. It is not that sensible to natural shrinking processes furthermore it is very resistant towards humidity. Different colour shades are obtained through colouring the resin.
