The LionBeat is a small accessory that is built along the same lines as the famed SR-1 folder - where the handle is a unique piece of natural material, to which the blade is attached. It's an all-around folding tool which can be used as a keychain folder, as a pendant for a necklace or as an accessory for a purse. Small, lightweight and stylish, it's the essential accessory of the LionSteel family. Besides, it's a real knife which, thanks to its lightweight and AISI 440 stainless steel blade, is ideal for a variety of different tasks with a very unique look to it.
My name is Costantino Zanda, I live in Sardegna (Sardinia) south coast, more precisely in Arbus. I entered the 'knife world' when I was 16 years old, learning this art from my then-boss Francesco Pusceddu, who was a big teacher for me both on work and life for 15 great years. Unfortunately, Francesco died a couple years ago, so I decided to begin working on my own, focusing on artisan works linked to Sardegna tradition, as it is tradition which keeps identity alive. Among all my creations, a very important one is 'su Coru' (the heart), which name derives from the particular and elegant shape of this knife.
