Laguiole knives with buffalo horn handles are highly prized for their natural beauty, durability, and exceptional craftsmanship. This material is naturally strong and resilient, featuring a distinctive texture and a color palette that ranges from deep brown to rich black.

The buffalo horn used in Laguiole knife handles is primarily sourced from Asia, where buffaloes are raised for their meat and milk. The crafting of buffalo horn into knife handles is a time-honored tradition that dates back centuries.

Laguiole artisans carefully shape and polish buffalo horn using traditional techniques, ensuring that each handle is unique. Every piece is hand-fitted and meticulously polished, resulting in a smooth, comfortable grip with a refined finish.
