BRUYÈRE, the root wood of the tree heather is dug up after thirty to sixty years of growth. The tuber is first boiled and then elaborately dried again before being used. The most beautiful pipe bowls are carved from briar. The wood is light to reddish brown, often beautifully grained and very hard due to mineral deposits, heat-resistant and therefore does not affect the aroma of pipe tobacco smoke. Bruyère, in German Erika. 
When passion is kindled, it becomes "Riki" anyway.
FORGE DE LAGUIOLE produces luxury. 
But what distinguishes the LUXE series, which is now known as the COLLECTION?
One of the features of this folding knife is that the "bee" - the little animal on the back of the knife handle - and the "Ressort", i.e. the spring in the knife handle, are forged from a single piece of steel. 
It is also a luxury that the ressort is chiseled and guilloched by hand along its entire length right into the blade.
A "guilloche" is a special pattern of intertwined lines. The final shape of the ornament is in the hands of the master craftsman who creates these unique pieces.
Natural materials vary in their appearance. Color and grain, but also the bee and the feather are different.
