The spring is engraved with an intricate, delicate feather that spirals along its length: finely stippled barbs alternate with darkened bands, and a feather tip opens at each end. Framed by hand-filed brass plates, the stainless steel feather appears suspended in gold, revealing new detail with every turn of the knife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBee #13 is hand-carved and forged as one piece with the spring.
