Informations about difference between industrially made products and handcrafted products

A lot of shops sell Laguiole for low prices. The reason is that they sell
industrially made products and not handcrafted products. It is because of the cheap prices.
Take care about that, because the normal quality for a Laguiole product is the
handcrafted quality.

A lot of companies in France, make industrials Laguiole and sell them all over
the world as the finest Laguiole quality.

In order to explain you how to recognize the 2 kinds of quality, just see these pictures :

Industrial quality (low quality - NOT sold on Laguiole.com) :

	The low quality Laguiole are not forged but only made with many pieces that are fit togethers. To gather all the pieces, the manufacturer put rivets. This kind of product is very light. It is about 0,040 Kg for one piece. Price of these products are very cheap, but it still very expansive in the comparison of the quality. You will never find this kind of quality on our web site because that not reflect the reason why Laguiole products are known : Laguiole cutlery is known for quality and not for these industrial products.

Handcrafted quality (High quality - it is the only quality sold on laguiole.com) :

The high quality Laguiole doesn't get anything to compare with industrial quality. All the cutlery is forged. That means that it is made in only one piece. You will NEVER find any rivet on the bolster because all the cutlery is made in one piece.
There is a high finishing work.
You can feel the quality in the weight because a knife is about 0,150 Kg. (almost 4 times the weight of a industrial product).
