Lamson MIDNIGHT Forged Wide Knife Kitchen & Dining Review

The Chef's Knife is the workhorse of the kitchen. Its broad blade dices, slices, and chops fruits, vegetables, and meats while protecting knuckles from hitting the cutting board. G-10 Handle material. G-10 was originally developed by Westinghouse and has proved its toughness and durability in challenging electrical and mechanical device applications. G-10 is constructed from strong and durable fiberglass layers and epoxy resin and formed under high temperature and pressure. The resulting material is incredibly strong, highly resistant to temperature, impervious to moisture and when polished has a beautiful deep shine. Unmatched quality. Blades are forged from the finest high-carbon stainless steel from Solingen, Germany (Grade 4116) or Lamson’s proprietary USA 420HC-LAM. Durable design. Our blades are precision forged using the traditional hot-drop method, or precision laser-cut and tempered to a perfect hardness of 58 on the Rockwell scale. This results in hard, wickedly sharp blades that retains an edge for longer and are both highly corrosion resistant and elastic. Superior performance. Full tang blades with double or triple riveted handles ensure ideal balance and weight. A curved and recessed bolster provides a seamless transition from handle to blade, resulting in comfortable thumb and finger support for better control and safety. Signature craftsmanship. Meticulously crafted in the USA, 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.
