The name Laguiole comes from the small village in the high plateau of south central France. These traditional knives were invented by combining the Capuchadou - a local fixed blade knife and the Navaja - a Spanish pocket knife, and the 'Layol' was born. Later designs included the addition of an awl and then a corkscrew, over time the migration of workers to Paris - to work as waiters and barman - saw the Laguiole become indispensable in this new field.
