What is a Forged Bee? You can recognize a forged bee when you look just below it, where it meets the decorated spring. If you do not see any gaps, it's a good sign that the bee and spring were forged from the same metal piece. You can also recognize a soldered bee by noticing a straight gap/ridge where the bee meets the spring.
Most inexpensive Laguiole pocket knives found on the market have a soldered bee. The process of adding the bee to the spring by soldering it saves time and money; this is why the cost of soldered bee knives can be substantially less. The original Laguiole knives had forged bees.
What's Included: Pocket knife - Leather Sheath - Numbered Certificate - Warranty & Repair Support
