Fleur de Lys 6 Laguiole Rosewood handle knives

First of all: a true laguiole knife has three distinctive features: 1) the bumble bee on the top, 2) the letter L enclosed in a circle near the heel of the blade and 3) the rivets in the handle are in the shape of a cross. These knives are not laguiole knives though they are made to look like them. That said, these knives are decent. The rosewood handles are attractive though it lacks any burl and knots; the wood is pretty basic and plain -higher end knives use wood with more variety and grain. These are pretty much the straight grain running from blade to butt of the handle. The steel blade is average, reasonably straight, sharp and polished. I thought these were fine until I happen to handle a set of higher end steak knives in a store over Christmas. The polish and shine on the $200 set of knives I looked at is far greater and more reflective than these.

Overall, these are fine if you 1) need a lot of knives or 2) don't really want to spend the bucks to get a more decorative set or 3) don't know where Laguiole is and don't care! In my case, I got what I paid for and what I wanted. My comments are basically to say if you want high end knives, these are not for you.

I bought the knives after reading that a chef who used them personally recommended them. The knives are elegant and very sharp.

We were disappointed to see the "Made in China" sticker on the box and feel the very light weight of these knives compared to those that we bought in Thiers, France. The design is similar but they are a dramatically inferior product. They are probably only somewhat overpriced for what they are, but they're not Laguiole knives.

I had pretty much the same experience as Kecia Kesler. The knife case was coming part on two sides of the bottom edges. The craftsmanship was so so. And originally I was led to believe that the product was French made, but when I received the item, there was a made in China sticker on it. I am returning the item, I don't think it's worth the ~$100 I paid for it.
