The Champagne Sabre reigns supreme as the highlight of all sophisticated celebrations. Its blade, sweeping along the bottle’s neck, executes a clean cut, priming the champagne for a graceful pour. This ritual, known as ‘sabrage’ in the French lexicon, is an elegant art that encapsulates both indulgence and triumph. It’s a historical practice dating back to Napoleon’s time, integral to the rich legacy of French Champagne culture.

The drama of champagne sabrage is a peak experience for devotees of this sparkling potion. It’s not as daunting as it seems, provided one knows the essential knack: steering the champagne sabre’s radiant steel along the bottle’s fragile seam, concluding with a firm, unwavering slash!

To orchestrate this exhilarating feat before an audience of friends or relatives, two elements are critical: a resolute hand and an exceptional-quality sabre. Where else to turn for the confidence of flawless artistry than Laguiole en Aubrac?

Be advised, due to the unique character of the materials used in crafting the handle, the item you receive may exhibit slight variations from the image presented.

About Buffalo Horn Handle

Buffalo horn is nearly always entirely black and quite heavily ridged along the inner side curve; it is flatter and far more rectangular than cow horn. When given a high polish buffalo horn develops an extremely hard surface and has to be one of the toughest natural materials.

Buffalo horn of this model is naturally preserved, it is the entirely natural external part which is emphasized.

This horn is made up of dense layers of fibres that have a very hard and durable surface, it resembles Cattle Horn greatly in its structure, however the walls are much thicker and more of the tip is solid.
