According to local legend, in order to praise the soldiers in our village for their bravery on the battlefield, Napoleon I presented his imperial seal to Le Village in Laakio. On Laakio's music knife, a bee stands out. However, there are still a few wine knives in Laquiole Castle that use faces, four-leaf clovers, Saint Jacques carapace and other signs.
According to a custom, nothing sharp can be given away, otherwise the friendship or love between the knife giver and the knife receiver will be cut off. In order to drive away bad luck, or according to legend, the knife receiver will give the knife sender a coin in exchange. This tradition is also true in other European countries.
