Laguiole Stainless Steel 2-Piece Carving Knife Set*
The Laguiole Stainless Steel 2-Piece Carving Knife Set is built for the moment the roast leaves the oven and everybody is watching. The 12" long utility knife is perfect for cutting poultry and vegetables, and the 5.5" carving fork holds food steady while carving, so the bird stays where it is put and the slices come off clean instead of ragged. Triple-riveted handles provide strength and stability, which is what separates a carving set you keep from a carving set you replace.
It arrives ready to be seen. The wood grain case provides an elegant display for the stainless steel cutlery at the serving table, so the set is part of the table setting rather than something fetched from a drawer at the last minute. The legendary Laguiole, a symbol of superior craftsmanship, is etched intricately into each knife, and that detail is the first thing anyone who cooks will look for when the case is opened.
Personalization is what turns it from good cutlery into a gift with a date on it. HansonEllis etches the set in-house with up to two lines: a family name, two first names and a wedding date, a line for the person who has carved at every holiday for twenty years. A couple opening it at a wedding uses it that first Thanksgiving in their own home, and every year after that, and the etching is still there when the story gets told to somebody who was not born yet.
That is why the Laguiole Stainless Steel 2-Piece Carving Knife Set sits so well as a wedding, anniversary or housewarming gift, and as a company gift for clients who cook. It is not decorative. It is used, sharpened, carried to the table and put back in its wood grain case, which is the highest compliment a gift can be paid.
Add your etching text above, choose your quantity, and give a set that gets used at the head of the table for years.

Which one should I choose
A carving set is chosen on two questions: does it look right on the serving table, and does it carry anybody's name.
| Laguiole Stainless Steel 2-Piece Carving Knife Set, etched | Choose it when the set is a gift: the wood grain case displays it at the table and your wording is etched on up to two lines. |
|---|---|
| The same set with no personalization | Choose it when it is for your own kitchen and no names are going on; that version can also be returned within 14 days. |
| A plain carving knife and fork with no case | Choose it when the set lives in a drawer and is never part of the table, and when it is not being given to anybody. |
As a gift, the etched Laguiole set wins on both counts: it is used at the head of the table and it carries the date it was given.
