The LionSteel M3 model is the older brother of the M2. It is the ideal knife for those with big hands. Its relatively wide blade gives it a tough and robust appearance. Its also has a high-quality finish. The grooved pattern in the wood scales, which is so typical of LionSteel, not only improves grip but is also really decorative. It comes with a beautifully-designed leather sheath that protects the blade. LionSteel always takes into account the wishes of knife lovers and this is borne out by the fact that this little gem was designed in collaboration with members of the Italian knife forum, MCKF.   
  
 

The full tang blade is made from Niolox steel. It features ridges for extra grip and easy manipulation when cutting. The handle is made of santos wood.

This is the sixth Lionsteel I have bought, along with a T5, M4, SR11, TM1 and KUR - they are all fabulous. The M3 has a beautiful and generous machined wood handle, comes in an excellent brown leather sheath and, at a shade over £100 is half the price you'd expect to pay for such quality.

Erster Eindruck ist gut. Hervorragend verarbeitetes Messer. Das Messer ist schön und erfüllt seinen Zweck. Einige schnitz und hackarbeiten habe ich schon durgeführt, und bin vollumfänglich zufrieden. Der Griff liegt gut in der Hand, und trotz der breiten Klimge, lassen sich auch etwas feinere schnitzarbeiten durchführen. Einziges Manko ist die Lederscheide. Sie sitzt zu hoch am Gürtel, und der Druckknopf um das Messer zu sichern stört. Mit der Zeit wird der Lederriemen durchgeschnitten wären das Messer gezogen oder in die Scheide gesteckt wird. Eine tiefersitzende Steckscheide hätte mir mehr entsprochen.

Lionsteel m3 is een mooi stevig mes . Prima in de handliggend handvat van mooi hout en sterk. Hele snelle Levering.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

Hardness

Material

fixed_blade_type

knife_best_use

We like to highlight what use the manufacturer had in mind, or what we believe the knife is suited for

Best use

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

molle_compatible

MOLLE is a mounting system that allows you to attach sheaths and other accessories to backpacks. With this specification we indicate whether a product is already MOLLE-compatible by default. [Want to learn more MOLLE](/en/ct/what-is-molle.htm)?

MOLLE-compatible

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
