Gino Pauletta after half a century of experience in the world of cutlery undoubtedly has an enviable level of professionalism and experience. But only recently, after his sons Daniele, Gianni and Massimo joined the company, he has been able to dedicate time to his main passion: creating unique pieces that are completely hand made.
And so, alongside the commercial brand with the LionSteel trademark, there has been for some years now an exclusive and artistic collection, completely hand worked and signed by the artist.
But there is more. Gino Pauletta decided to place his skills at your disposal and to turn your ideas into reality. In fact you can now have your projects turned into a real knife, custom – made just for you. Contact us, the artist is waiting to hear from you.
