M Walnut Carbon Steel

Following the great success and continuing popularity of the Old Bear Series in the style of traditional utility pocketknives, Antonini has produced the same series in trusty carbon steel - for all fans of the original and authentic. If chromium is not added to the steel, it has the advantage of being easy to sharpen. This type of blade doesn't need an elaborate sharpening system or even help from the manufacturer. Just like in the good old days, it's enough to use the base of a plate or the bottom of an earthenware moonshine jug to get the knife back to its sharp edge for all everyday cutting tasks. With long-term use, the blade develops the rugged gray patina that also offers a certain amount of rust protection.

Warning and safety information:
Cut injuries: The most common danger when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can quickly penetrate skin and tissue.
Slipping of the knife: Improper or excessive pressure can cause the knife to slip, resulting in uncontrolled movements that can cause injuries.
Injuries due to falls: Knives should never be left unsecured or near table edges to prevent them from falling and injuring someone.
Blunt knives: Blunt knives pose a greater risk of injury as they require more force and can slip more easily. Knives should therefore be properly sharpened regularly.
Improper use: Using a knife for tasks for which it is not intended (e.g. as a lever tool) can not only damage the blade, but also lead to accidents.
