New Vintage Lamson stainless slicer with rosewood handle and original sleeve made approximately between the 1940s and 60s. This knife is new and unused with the original factory edge. 

Interestingly the sleeve is marked "No. Sabatier 6-S-01-10"', clearly all American but the name Sabatier was synonymous with professional cutlery back then and was referenced a lot as a marketing hook. 


10" blade 15.5" overall 5.8 oz

This is a stainless steel knife. It should be hand washed and towel dried. Dishwasher use will result in degraded edge and handle. Consistent long term exposure to moisture can lead to oxidation.
Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.
We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
