Lynx Small-Game Cleaver 167mm

Weight, balance, and power forge a tactile experience to savor. Maker Torbjörn “Tobbe” Lundström begins this mid-size ‘small game’ cleaver with wide-stock Damasteel stainless damascus steel for a blade that offers both the strength and heft for tough cuts and at the same time a thin, very sharp edge for efficient vegetable chopping, and even slicing work. A classic butcher’s cleaver hanging hole at the end of the blade delivers utility and a touch of nostalgia, matched nicely to the blade’s profile. The handle, as artful and utile, is shaped from spruce burl secured by a single mosaic pin, fitted to a ring of fossilized mammoth tooth, and finally, capped with incredible lynx mosaic damascus bolsters hand forged in Sweden’s north by Mastersmith Mattias Styrefors. As expected of a Tobbe Lundström creation, a saya is included made of reclaimed barn siding with a mammoth tooth pin.
