Durand Folding Knife Juniper
The term Laguiole refers to both provenance and the style of a knife. The knives are produced entirely in the French village of Laguiole according to a tradition dating back to 1828. The bee, one of the symbols of an Original Forge de Laguiole knife, is carved with a file and an engraver. The legend goes that the Napoleonic imperial symbol was attributed to the citizens of Laguiole by Emperor Napoléon himself as a tribute to their courage shown in the services to the emperor. This folding knife made of juniper is an excellent piece with a lot of history to add to your collection. It even carries the faintest scent of the juniper wood.
