This 12 cm forged bee Laguiole folding knife is handmade in the village of Laguiole and has a forged bee and T12 steel blade. The traditional shepherd’s cross is also featured on most models (check photos). Each has been crafted with pride by a single master cutler, ensuring that each masterpiece is unique to its craftsman’s work ethic!
The Forge de Laguiole workshop operates in the tiny village of Laguiole, France – Pop. 1300 – where the famous knife first appeared in the early 1800s. Today, Forge de Laguiole represents the pinnacle of quality in the Laguiole cutlery business. Their reputation for integrity, ethics, and innovative designs has made this small 100 employees company the “Must Have” Laguiole luxury brand.
What is a Forged Bee? You can recognize a forged bee by looking 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 piece of metal. You can also recognize a soldered bee by noticing a straight gap/ridge where the bee meets the spring.
A 12 cm Laguiole folding knife can be used as a steak knife; its open length is 8. 3/4″ vs. ~9″ for a standard steak knife. Why use such a knife at the dinner table or at your favorite steak house? Check out our article (new tab) for the surprising answer.
