Chateau Laguiole Corkscrews

Chateau Laguiole Corkscrews

Ref: chateau laguiole

Located in France on a rocky spur over the Durolle river, the medieval houses of the Old Town section of Thiers are terraced around narrow and sloping streets.

The development of cutlery production here dates to the 15th century. Starting at this time, life in the city became tightly bound to the making of knives. Near the river lived the unskilled workers and blacksmiths, while the craftsmen and cutlery manufacturers were established in the old part of the city.

From the outset, the knife manufacturing process at Chateau Laguiole requires the presence of various craft corporations (a minimum of 105 operations are necessary to make a pocket knife): forging, blunting, hardening, polishing and assembly of the parts where the know how of the setter adjusting the pieces is the guarantee of the knife functioning correctly.

Chateau Laguiole Corkscrew Clef du Vin

Ref: gd3050

Price: £109.94

Quantity:

This stunning corkscrew by Chateau Laguiole also features a Clef du Vin in the blade. Half wood handle and knife.

The Clef du Vin is an alloy made up of many different metals, which have been prepared and produced using a special technique. It is the outcome of scientific study combined with accepted traditions and methods in the wine industry. The unique and exceptional Clef du Vin is essentially a measuring instrument that will immediately tell you if your wines are suitable for laying down. Thus revealing their ageing potential. In a controlled way, it will gradually modify the organoleptic qualities of the wine (taste, smell, flavours and bouquet). It will not age the wine.

Complete with gift pouch.
