Laguiole eclaire twin blade folder

[Spikey DaPikey]

I've had this knife for a few years now, never used it and it's just sat in its box looking pretty.

I'm thinking about selling it as my overdraft is almost full, but i dont know how much its worth, as i'm not able to find the model anyware online !

One plain blade, one serrated blade, filework on spine, great wooded box and in very good/as new condition.

So, looking for some good advice on price please, and maybe a link to the model if anyone can find it.

Photos below.

can't find any info,here. seems to be a brand,but honestly i didn't know it.
well laguioles aren't my cup of tea! i don't know nothing about it except l'éclair means the flash...
a single bladed one from that brand is sold 36,90 euros,that's all i can tell!

Quite a famous knifemaking company, i think they make table cutlery too. Might be wrong

i may be entirely wrong here, i am often am, but i have a feeling that laguiole's are somewhat akin to mora's i.e. a number of different companies from the same region all producing work under the same name, as such i'd expect there to be a world of difference (in terms of quality and price) between seamingly very similar knifes with the lagioule branding. not really a great deal of help i know, sorry!

yes it is!
there are more laguiole produced in thiers than in laguiole village,if you add thiers and laguiole production per year ,it is 80% of spanish production in albacete.
then if you add thiers+laguiole+albacete it is less than pakistani production,(with bad finish,of course,but a man with no special interest in knife would'nt notice)
