Description
Two Chinese-style santoku cleavers in two sizes. They handle big, tough jobs like squash, melons and carrots, and they’re precise enough for herbs and tomatoes. The 8″ large cleaver takes on the big prep, and the 6″ small cleaver handles everyday chopping.
Made by Lamson in Massachusetts
Lamson has made cutlery in Massachusetts since 1837. Vintage Series blades are laser cut from USA high-carbon stainless steel, then ground, polished and sharpened in Lamson’s Massachusetts facilities. They’re tempered to 58 on the Rockwell scale, so the edge stays sharp longer and resists corrosion. Each full-tang blade gets a hand-finished walnut handle with brass rivets, and the curved integrated bolster supports both a traditional grip and a pinch grip.

Care
Hand wash with warm, soapy water and dry right away. Never put it in the dishwasher. Hone the edge regularly, and oil the walnut handle now and then to keep it from drying out.
Warranty
Lamson backs every Lamson product with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, and its Sharp for Life™ program offers complimentary professional sharpening. Lamson knives are made by Lamson, not in the Heirloom Products shop, so the Lamson warranty applies rather than the Heirloom Products warranty.
