LAMSON Brad Leone 8″ Signature Series Chinese Santoku Cleaver Knife – Walnut or Black G-10 Handle

Meet the “Bad Boy”—Brad Leone’s signature powerhouse that commands respect in any kitchen. This isn’t just a cleaver; it’s your secret weapon for conquering any cutting challenge with confidence and style. When you grip that walnut handle and feel the perfect balance of USA steel, you’re not just prepping ingredients—you’re channeling the energy of a culinary legend, ready to chop, crush, and create like never before.

Constructed from superior USA Hi-Carbon Stainless Steel, our full-tang Brad Leone Signature blades are cut, ground, polished and sharpened in our Massachusetts facilities. Handles of Walnut or Midnight (Black G-10) are assembled to the blades with brass or stainless-steel rivets and then the knives are meticulously finished and sharpened.

The Brad Leone Signature Series features an updated ergonomically friendly hand-finished Walnut handle or a lustrous Black G-10 handle that have a traditional, timeless look and feel. The sleek integrated bolster allows for a traditional or pinch-grip. The brass rivets complement the Walnut handle while the nickel-silver rivets complement the Black G-10 handle and accents the stainless-steel blade.

Features

• Signature craftsmanship. Meticulously formed in our Massachusetts facilities, each of our knives is finished to perfection using state of the art technology coupled with hand finishing as well as proprietary polishing and sharpening processes.
• Unmatched quality. Blades are formed from superior USA Hi-Carbon Stainless Steel. Knives come with a choice of sleek and sturdy handles of either Walnut or Polished Midnight (Black G-10).
• Durable design. Our blades are precision laser cut and tempered to a hardness of 58 on the Rockwell scale. This results in a hard, wickedly sharp blade that retains an edge for longer and is both highly corrosion resistant and elastic.
• Superior cutting performance. Full tang blades with double brass or nickel-silver riveted handles ensure ideal balance and weight. Our combination machine and hand-sharpening processes ensures a consistently sharp and durable edge.
• Superior ergonomic handling. A curved and recessed integrated bolster provides a seamless transition from handle to blade, resulting in comfortable thumb and finger support for better control and safety. If you use a traditional or advanced “pinch-grip”, you will love the feel and function of these knives.
• Lifetime Warranty. Every Lamson product comes with a Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects.
