Individual pieces should be returned with a dated proof of purchase and explanation letter. The knives are hardened and tempered to a Rockwell C53-54 hardness which produces a sharp edge that is durable and easily maintained. The entire knife, from tip to butt, is forged as one piece for full integrity and real American quality. The full taper grind is a superior style when grinding professional cutlery. LamsonSharp has computer controlled grinding for a perfect taper from bolster to the tip of the blade and from the top of the blade to the sharp edge.
Blades have attractive satin finished surfaces, with hand honed final edges.
Brass Rivets Three tubular brass compression rivets permanently secure the handles permanently to the full tang. Bolster Unique to the forging process, the thickness and weight provided by the bolster adds force and balance to the cutting action, as well as a safe and comfortable surface for the fingers to rest against. The handle of a knife should be comfortable to use. LamsonSharp crafts people hand blend all contours for true comfort with no sharp lines. All knives need to have their cutting edges restored from time to time, and this program enables all eligible owners of LamsonSharp knives, whether they use their own knife sharpening appliances or not, to have their knives sharpened by the craftsmen who made the knives.
