What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Laguiole Jean Dubost Cheese Knife for its blend of functional elegance and superior design. Reviewers consistently highlight the rich, unique olive wood handle and the iconic Laguiole emblem, elevating this utensil to a sophisticated table accessory. The knife earns high marks for its sharpness, cleanly slicing various cheeses without sticking. While positioned at a premium price, consumers feel the exceptional quality, visual impact, and perceived durability strongly justify the investment, offering excellent value. The primary consideration is the required hand washing for the natural wood, an accepted necessity for such a fine piece. This knife is celebrated for enhancing the dining experience.
Know before you buy
No, these knives should be hand-washed only. The olive wood handles can crack or lose their luster if exposed to the high heat and harsh detergents of a dishwasher.
These knives are versatile enough for most cheeses, ranging from soft bries to semi-hard varieties like cheddar or gouda. The 2.5mm stainless steel blade provides enough stability for clean, precise cuts.
To keep the wood in top condition, it is recommended to occasionally rub the handles with a food-safe mineral oil. This prevents the wood from drying out and helps maintain its natural grain and color.
The set includes a dedicated wooden storage box, which is the best way to protect the blades from dulling and keep the set organized. Storing them in the box also helps prevent the wood handles from being damaged by other utensils in a drawer.
These knives feature a sharp, straight-edged design. This allows for smooth, clean slices through cheese without tearing the texture of softer varieties.
