Antonini Old Bear Ring Lock Folding Knife Total Black Medium 9303/19_MNN

The Antonini Old Bear Ring Lock Folding Knife Total Black Medium blends classic Italian craftsmanship with sleek modern styling, delivering a lightweight and dependable everyday carry built on generations of cutlery tradition. Produced in Maniago, Italy—long known as one of the world’s great knife-making centers—this knife reflects a commitment to practical design, honest materials, and everyday performance.

The 3.5-inch clip point blade is crafted from W 1.4060 stainless steel, a reliable alloy valued for its durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent cutting performance. A black PTFE coating gives the blade a bold, low-profile appearance while helping protect it from moisture and wear during daily use. The clip point profile provides excellent control and a fine, precise tip for detailed cutting tasks, while the curved belly handles slicing chores with ease. From opening packages to trimming cord or handling light camp tasks, this blade shape delivers versatility you’ll appreciate day after day.

Opening the blade is simple and controlled thanks to the traditional nail nick, preserving the knife’s classic character. Antonini’s patented rotating ring lock provides added safety by allowing the blade to be securely locked in both the open and closed positions. The brass collar rotates smoothly with the thumb, creating a dependable lock system that remains simple, effective, and true to the knife’s traditional roots.

The black laminated wood handle completes the knife’s striking “Total Black” appearance. Its smooth, contoured shape provides a comfortable grip while the natural wood grain adds warmth and individuality to each piece. Measuring 4.5 inches closed and weighing just 1.38 ounces, this knife carries easily in the pocket while remaining ready whenever a cutting job appears.
