About Jean Dubost

Jean Dubost is a family cutlery house in Viscomtat, a mountain village fifteen kilometres from Thiers, the capital of French knife-making. Pierre Dubost and Marcelle Colas-Pradel founded it in 1920; it takes its name from their son, and the fourth generation runs it today. The workshop holds France’s Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label, reserved for companies whose craft is considered part of the national heritage, and it was the first French cutler to be PEFC-certified for the woods it uses. These knives are made there: stainless-steel blades, sculpted ivory-toned handles, and the polished rivets and slim silhouette that mark a Laguiole.

Laguiole is a village on the Aubrac plateau in the Aveyron, where the folding knife that bears its name was first made in 1829. The name was never protected, so a great many “Laguiole” knives are made far from France with no connection to the tradition. Jean Dubost is one of the established French houses that make them properly. Look for the slender profile, the bee that traditionally sits at the top of the handle, and a maker willing to put its own name on the box.

Can they go in the dishwasher? Jean Dubost rates its synthetic-handled knives dishwasher-safe. Washing and drying them by hand keeps the blades and rivets brighter for longer, which is how we treat ours.
How do I keep them sharp? A few strokes on a steel before steak night; a professional sharpening every year or two if they are used often.
Steak knives or table knives? These are steak knives: heavier in the hand and made to cut meat cleanly. Compare other knife and serving options in the Laguiole and Jean Dubost collection.

Why we chose it. Steak knives live on the table, so function alone is not enough. Jean Dubost gives the Laguiole tradition a proper French maker, elegant proportions and the visual continuity of a six-piece set.
What it makes better. A good steak deserves to be cut cleanly rather than sawed apart with an ordinary dinner knife. Just as important, six matching knives make the table look resolved before the food arrives.
How we would use it. Set them for steak, lamb chops or any substantial main course, then hand wash and dry them even though the synthetic handles are rated dishwasher-safe. Beautiful cutlery deserves the extra minute.
Who will love it. The serious host, Francophile, wedding couple and person building a table collection intended to survive trends.
Why it earns its place. Six knives made in France by a century-old, heritage-recognized cutlery house give the Laguiole name the provenance that mass-market imitations usually lack.
