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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMany Laguiole knives from all makers, including Forge de Laguiole, offer \"soldered bees\" models. Most Laguiole knives found on the market are solder bee models. 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included: \u003c\/strong\u003ePocket knife - Gift box - Forge de Laguiole Certificate - Warranty \u0026amp; Repair Support \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Forge de Laguiole USA","offers":[{"title":"SHINY BRASS","offer_id":67897425068313,"sku":"129 RO","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SHINY STAINLESS","offer_id":67897425101081,"sku":"129 IN RO BRI","price":194.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BRUSHED STAINLESS","offer_id":67897425133849,"sku":"129 IN RO SAT","price":194.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1003\/0153\/7561\/files\/Forge-de-Laguiole-Tradition-9-cm-Rosewood.jpg?v=1792710802","url":"https:\/\/touchofmodern.com\/products\/forge-de-laguiole-tradition-9-cm-rosewood","provider":"Touch of Modern","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
