About Laguiole Jean Dubost

The Jean Dubost family business was founded in 1920. Nowadays it is led by the 4th generation who combines the traditional method of knife making with modern industrial production techniques.

The Laguiole Jean Dubost range is made entirely in France. With the exception of a few tropical types of wood, all parts, such as the steel and the handles, also come from France. In the factory, raw steel (AISI 420 standard with hardness HRC 52/56) is transformed into a razor-sharp, highly polished blade in a process of 9 production phases. 1.5 million Laguiole steak knives are made every year, almost half of which are intended for export.

Unfortunately, there is also an imitation Laguiole that is mainly produced in China. Although often not immediately visible from the outside (the logo, the honeybee, is even copied), the material and manufacturing is of significantly lower quality. Imitation is easy to recognize. If the steel blade of the knife is not explicitly engraved with France, the knife was not produced in France and is therefore not authentic.
