Lionsteel, one of the most beautiful Italian cutleries

The factory is located in Maniago in Italy, the famous cradle of Italian cutlery. In this small town, all the great names in knife making are present, including Lionsteel.

For generations, the inhabitants of Maniago have known how to take advantage of a not very generous land to concentrate their work on the development of a craft industry first and then an industry. In their small town, isolated from the great international cutlery makers, they have developed a knowledge that today propels them to the level of the greatest.

The founder of Lionsteel, Gino Pauletta, has been supported for several years by his sons and the success is there. The proof: international distinctions follow one another at a steady pace and salute the creativity and quality of the production of this small firm that has managed to remain human in scale and yet excel!

We can say that Lionsteel has been able to industrialize the artisanal know-how because the quality of their knives is unparalleled. This brand also regularly uses high quality materials and makes no concessions in this regard.

What characterizes the brand in addition to the beautiful designs of knives proposed is the fluidity of the openings concerning the range of folding knives.

The Lionsteel knife

It can be said that the "Lionsteel knife" is synonymous with class and elegance. The blade is generally made of high quality steel, premium steel, or damascus. The handle is made of materials such as olive wood, santos wood, walnut. These materials have the merit of making your knife unique because each of the handles will be subjected to the particularities of the wood (veins, patterns). Lionsteel also works with materials such as titanium and carbon fibre.

Lionsteel makes it a point of honour to make its knives 100% made in Italy. This is commendable in the current market. And...it comes at a price.

But honestly, when you take a Lionsteel knife in your hand, you understand that this price is not excessive.

We are in a premium industrial knife line that has no tolerance for guesswork. The quality control is very meticulous, so since the beginning of our activity as knifemakers, we at Tellknives have never returned a Lionsteel knife or exercised a guarantee.

Lionsteel signs several collaborations

There are also many collaborations with other well-known brands, including Spyderco, DPx GEAR, Bastinelli, Pohl Force and CRKT

Lionsteel often uses well-known designers, whose reputation is well established. This is also the reason for the success of the Lionsteel models.

The range of Lionsteel knives is quite large. It is a versatile brand and you will find hunting knives, pocket knives and EDC (every day carry) as well as specific blades for the outside (bushcraft knives).

MKM (Maniago Knife Makers)

Lionsteel has also been able to create a collaboration with the knifemakers of the region to unite their strength. This collective venture has produced knives that are widely acclaimed in their field. The collaborating brands are LionSteel, Viper, Fox and Mercury. These models bring together the best of the four great knife makers under the MKM emblem. We really invite you to take a closer look at these models

We should add that Tellknives Knifemaking was fortunate enough to visit Maniago; the warm welcome and friendliness are part of the family′s spirit! We love it!
