This Laguiole knife is a fusion of rare materials and symbolic design. The 12 cm full handle is shaped from figured brown-yellow poplar—an expressive wood drawn from the junction where a tree forks, creating intense internal tension and striking grain variation. In this region, nature concentrates its energy, producing mesmerizing veining with rippling patterns and glowing tones that range from amber gold to deep bronze. Its satin finish preserves a natural feel, offering both softness to the touch and depth to the eye.
At the spine, the sculpted bee stands as a spiritual emblem. Nestled at its center is a delicate five-petal daisy—like a heart radiating outward—while the wings unfold with the gentle curve of ceremonial robes or peony petals caught in motion. The head, finely engraved, echoes the calm dignity of a Buddhist figure, poised and introspective. Below, the spring unfurls into lotus-shaped motifs, flowing as if drawn by water. The liners, chiseled with care at the base of the handle, complete this interplay of organic beauty and precision.
A piece for those who seek meaning not only in form but in the soul of craftsmanship.

Some knives are tools. Others are talismans.
The Dharma Bee Laguiole is a meditation in form—where wood, steel, and spirit converge. Resting atop the spine, the sculpted bee cradles a five-petal daisy at its heart, as if guarding the essence of calm. Its wings, softly arched like draped silk, evoke the protective folds of a monk’s robe, while the head—finely engraved—recalls the serene gaze of a Buddhist figure in contemplation. The spring flows with the grace of lotus petals floating on still water, a quiet homage to the balance between movement and stillness.
The handle, carved from figured brown-yellow poplar, pulses with natural energy. Harvested from the place where a tree divides, this wood is full of tension, contrast, and life. Its golden and toasted tones shimmer under a satin polish, the grain flowing like ink through parchment. To hold this knife is to hold a narrative—of nature’s complexity, of artisan reverence, and of the quiet strength found in restraint.
Figured Poplar Fork – Rooted in Nature’s Tension
The “fork” of the poplar tree is where its trunk splits into major branches — a place of natural tension that yields beautifully irregular and dense wood fibers. This intersection produces swirling grain, unexpected knots, and wild contrasts in color, making every piece taken from it one of a kind.
In this model, the wood glows in rich brown and warm yellow tones, like sunlight breaking through woodland canopies. Its satin finish enhances the organic movement without muting the depth of its character. Under your fingertips, it feels both smooth and alive — an extension of the tree’s own expression, frozen in time.
