Product delivered not in conformity with the product ordered; the invoice and delivery note are in conformity with the order; apart from a discount on a possible and unlikely order, no concrete commercial gesture; product kept because too close to Christmas to allow a return and new delivery in time...

Good evening Sir, Thank you for your opinion and rating; with all our apologies for this error on our part; you omit to specify that the person you spoke to on the phone offered to send you the knife corresponding to your order without waiting for your return; with the essential aim that you have the knife well before Christmas (we were Tuesday December 18 at 09H15 and therefore well enough lead time to have it within a short week (postal delivery in 48H00). I remain at your disposal. Yours sincerely Honoré Durand

Hello, i received a kit with a guilloche blade and nowhere does it appear on the ad. i ordered the Phillips bit for stainless steel screws and this one is not suitable because even when drilling at 2.1 in Ebony the heads do not hold. disappointed for the price.

Hello Mr Baudry, Thank you for your message and rating; the blades we deliver have a smooth top, surprising that you received a chiselled top ... could you send me a photo? As for the rest of your comments, I don't quite understand the analogy you're making between the Phillips bit and drilling ...., as the Phillips bit has nothing to do with drilling ....; lastly, our kits are not delivered with ebony wood (so you'll have to check the quality of your wood??); and above all, I'd like to inform you and confirm that, in our workshops, we do drill ebony wood using 2.1 .... bits. Please do not hesitate to contact me by e-mail [email protected], phone (05.65.51.50.14), .... Sincerely Honoré Durand

Finishing ok, knife received quickly but: - need to sharpen the knife as soon as I receive it... !
- On the site, the "chiseling by hand" is transformed into chiseling with a grinder on the invoice...
- the forged bee is made with a press and the excess metal is rather badly removed - the knife closes badly Nevertheless the final finish is very good except for the bee... but a few points need to be revised, for less than 230 euros I would have hoped to have chiselled with a chisel ??!!! As indicated on the site, and a better-finished bee.
My opinion is mixed, but it's still a very nice object, and I hope it helps you.

To choose the right model of knife. I'm disappointed with the size. Can I change? I haven't used this material yet. I'd like a shorter, lighter knife. Thank you for your reply. Roger Herrera

I find it a little disappointing for a company such as LAGUIOLE HONORÉ DURANT, not to have a well-made knife for everyday use for a price of around 130 euros (I bought a knife with a slight defect, a poorly-fitting bolster and a few traces of dirt on the handle), which begs the question: what's the point of buying a knife from certain professional cutlers when a chinoiserie can do the job for everyday use? I'm not a knife collector, I own a few dozen knives, I like a job well done, I have a few knives by Jean Michel CAYRON (Damascus blade), DOMINIQUE BIONDI etc ... Sincerely, M LIGORI

Hello Mr Ligori, Thank you for your opinion and rating; I'm sorry about the quality problems; could you please get back to me by e-mail around [email protected] and send me some photos of the knife and the problems ("slight play defect" and "ill-fitting bolster"); as for the dirt on the handle, all our knives are meticulously hand-wiped, with our apologies for the inconvenience.

My companion is happy with his knife. The only negative point is that the carbon blade (steel in fact) rusts, and I didn't know that. It's not clearly indicated on the site. Had I known, I would have ordered a stainless steel blade for 7€ more. As a result, he can't use it for every meal. It's a shame.

Hello Mr Romero, Thank you for your review and rating. Please contact us ([email protected] or 05.65.51.50.14) so that we can look into the problem and find a solution for you. We try to find a happy medium of hardness, so that the knife can't close inadvertently, but can also close easily when you want to do so. Please note that the 11 cm model is the hardest, the firmest spring in our range. Please do not hesitate to contact me. Honoré Durand

Nice site with enough information to make you want more; the German translation, however, is catastrophic in places and testifies to the use of foreign-language translation programs and a blatant lack of editing by German native speakers

The site's ergon could be improved, and especially if the knives for sale are already produced, it should be possible to see them once the material has been chosen, to appreciate the darker or lighter shades of the horn or the hues and grain of the wood.

Site a bit confusing, especially on the final price, it seemed at one point that you had to pay more but in the end you didn't. It's a shame. It's a shame, but I hope it didn't discourage anyone from completing their order, because the products are magnificent.

The kit was given to me as a gift. The instructions are very inadequate; I had to go on the Internet to get a demonstration of how to prepare and assemble it. The piece of wood supplied for the handle is too fragile and split; I replaced it with marine plywood. Too bad!

Hello Mr. Biermann, Thank you for your feedback; perhaps you didn't read the instructions we supply with our kits correctly, or even in full: we'd be happy to e-mail you more detailed assembly instructions.
As for the handle splitting, it's quite surprising (as the wood is quite soft) and the first time we've had this feedback from a customer; perhaps you didn't use the right drilling diameter in relation to the diameter of the handle fixing screws... I remain at your entire disposal, Yours faithfully

I had a problem with the placement of the engraving of my son's initials on my corkscrew, but citing this to you through an e-mail sent to your home, Christophe Durand replied that he would correct things, so happy, but not 5 stars this time because of the planned return of the corkscrew.
