It is a roll Damascus blade made of carbon with 160 layers, hardened to 61 to 63 HRC. Double-plated means two stainless steel plates reinforce the spring, and here the plates are hand filed. The bee and spring are forged from a single piece of stainless steel. The handle is olive wood. The bolsters and spine are brushed stainless steel. The blade is 4 inches (10 cm), with a 4.75 inch (12 cm) cutting edge. The knife weighs 105 g (3.73 oz). It includes a certificate of authenticity and is made in Espalion, France, within the historic Laguiole region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt brings together German blade-making and French knife-making in one piece.
