The knives manufactured by the cutlers of Honoré Durand are custom-built by hand in the tradition of the French ‘Maîtres couteliers’ (master cutlers) from high quality materials. Depending on the design of the knives, up to 105 individual operations are necessary until they have their final look. Therefore, each single piece is unique in its kind. Numerous awards at national and international exhibitions and trade fairs attest the tremendous creativity of this company. One man – one knife, this is the company’s motto: Every knife is made only by one trained and qualified cutler who is responsible for the product, quite contrary to industrial mass production. After production, the knives pass through the master craftsman’s discerning hands and only flawless Laguioles (Laguiole knives) receive the company logo ‘Laguiole de l’Artisan’ in the sign of the bull. And of this they are very proud in and around the town of Laguiole. Also the many national and international awards bear testimony to this, awards which the knives of Honoré Louis Durand have received at exhibitions and trade fairs.
