A lever switch has a base member, a first switch knob member, a first moderation mechanism, a substrate having a first contact member, and a first slider. The base member has a first supporting surface formed along an outer peripheral surface of a column centered on a rotational axis of the first switch knob member and a second supporting surface formed on one side across the rotational axis. The first switch knob member includes a first supported surface and a second supported surface, and the second supported surface is provided with a first cam portion. The first supported surface is rotatably supported on the first supporting surface, the second supported surface is rotatably supported on the second supporting surface, and the first slider is held on a side opposite to a side where the second supporting surface is provided across the rotational axis.
