I was handed down a Vintage Pierce Speed King knife that easily had been used since mid 1980’s. It still worked flawlessly up until this year when it finally died. For a short time I tried the alternatives on the market; rollers, square scrappers, forks, and a simple serrated cold knife. Nothing compared to the Speed King quality and ease of use. I figured if they can make a product last 30+ years then I should invest in their products again. I’m a happy owner of a new Speed King model and it works just as amazing as the old one. It gives you such a clean cut with little effort at all! The knife heats up within 30 seconds and ready for use. I will dip mine into the wax cappings in between frames to keep temperature regulated. It’s worth mentioning that the customer service is amazing also! I would say half the time I have called them we end up talking bee stuff off the topic I called for! 🙂 Thanks Anura!

I am in Australia. I had an issue with one of Pierce’s Hot knifes & was unable to get any satisfaction from the Australian dealer where the knife was purchased. I sent Pierce USA an e-mail explaining my issue & not only did they respond almost straight away they were caring in their response & egar to solve the issue. After we worked though the detail of the issue, with being asked they have offered & now sent a new hot knife to me. Their response, attitude & belief in doing the right thing is something other company should aspire to. I thank Pierce Beekeeping for the kind & very response & would recommend them to anybody that asks. Terrific after sale service. Richard.
