Who is Coutellerie du Barry?
Coutellerie du Barry is a forge full of soul: founded as a small family business, it grows not through size but through refinement. The tension between rustic authenticity and a fine finish is resolved here in harmony. The knives often carry handle materials with warmth and structure, the spring work is solid, the finish careful. For people who want not only to look at a knife but to feel it.
What we look at on a knife by Coutellerie du Barry
Every forge has its signature. With Coutellerie du Barry it is the handle materials with warmth and structure, the solid spring work and the careful finish. That is exactly what allows a knife to be identified, and it is what we examine in your photographs. If a question remains, we go to the forge itself.
How it works
You order the examination. In the original-laguiole.de shop, for 10.00 euros, like a product. Then you upload photographs of your knife in your customer account: open and closed, the bee, the spine, the blade with the forge mark, and if available the receipt or packaging.
We examine it. We compare your knife with what we know from 30 years of trading with French forges, and when in doubt we ask the forge itself.
You get the result. If your knife is genuine it receives its own number, its page on aipcl.com and the certificate as a PDF. If it is not, we tell you that too.
What it costs
10.00 eurosExamining and registering one knife costs 10.00 euros.
If the examination shows that your knife does not come from a French forge, we refund the amount, of course. You pay only for a certificate you actually receive.
The examination is ordered in the original-laguiole.de shop. With the purchase you buy the examination, not the certificate; whether we issue it depends on the result of examining your photographs.
