This remarkable Laguiole pocket knife belongs to the Nox Pretiosa collection, a celebration of nocturnal beauty and refined contrast. Its 12 cm handle is fashioned from dense ebony wood, carefully polished to reveal a lustrous, deep black surface. Inset into this darkness is a vivid malachite accent, each stone distinguished by natural striations of rich green that evoke hidden mineral veins.

The satin-finished stainless steel blade complements the handle’s sophisticated duality, while the liners and spine feature precise guilloché engraving that reinforces the knife’s artisanal heritage. With no metal bolsters to interrupt its silhouette, the piece feels seamless and contemporary, allowing the materials to speak for themselves.

Elegant yet understated, this model reflects a perfect equilibrium between craftsmanship and nature — ideal for those who appreciate the quiet luxury of unique materials combined with timeless design.

Ebony & Malachite Handle

This handle pairs the timeless depth of satin-polished ebony with the vibrant beauty of green malachite. Renowned for its density and smooth feel, ebony provides a perfect backdrop to showcase the richness of the stone.

The malachite inlay is reconstituted to highlight striking bands of bright green and deeper emerald shades, capturing the layered allure of mineral formations. Unlike other versions, this model does not contain golden accents, offering a purer contrast between the materials. Stainless steel plates complete the design with a discreet touch of refinement.

No two knives are ever exactly the same — each handle reflects the natural diversity of the wood and stone, making every piece distinctly individual.
