Walnut Chestnut Knife

Lamson, an American company founded in 1837, has been handcrafting the finest cutlery, kitchen tools, and trade tools in Massachusetts for 179 years. The company takes pride in its rich heritage and commitment to producing products that aim for nothing short of perfection.

Lamson's tradition of high-quality craftsmanship is evident in all of its offerings, from its classic cutlery and kitchen tools to its specialized barbeque equipment, TreeSpirit (Handcrafted North American Hardwood Kitchen Utensils and Wood Care Products), and HotSpot (Professional Grade Silicone Potholders, Trivets, HotHandles) products.

One of Lamson's unique offerings is a special knife designed to score chestnuts before roasting, as well as being useful for peeling the inner skin of the nut. This knife is crafted with hardened and tempered high-carbon stainless steel, ensuring its durability and performance. The handles are made of riveted walnut, which is unusually hard and provides strength and durability, though they are not dishwasher safe. When the wood appears dry, it can be treated with mineral oil to maintain its appearance.

Lamson's commitment to American craftsmanship is evident in the fact that all of its products are made in the USA. This commitment has earned the company the loyalty of home and professional cooks, as well as US Presidents, for the past 179 years.

The company's simple vintage kitchen gadgets combine nostalgia and practical design, making them not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. These tools are a testament to Lamson's dedication to preserving traditional methods while incorporating modern innovations to meet the needs of today's cooks.

Lamson's enduring success is a result of its unwavering dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and customer satisfaction. As one of the oldest cutlery manufacturers in the United States, the company continues to set the standard for excellence in the industry, and its products are a testament to the enduring value of American-made goods.
