Blade is carbon steel, and the plum wood handle is hafted with a brass pin and disc rosette rivet. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThese are part of a batch of unused vintage Italian knives we have found and are very unusual to come by, these were not exported to the United States very much and show up used hardly ever. I can count on one hand the number of vintage Italian knives of this era I have found in 20 years of dealing in vintage knives. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThis is a great example of the historic small-industry knife-making from several small towns in Northern Italy. Similar to French knives of this basic construction, they were made to be affordable work knives in their day, little vanity was paid to finish, but they have a lot of charm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThe blade was originally unsharpened. Typically, we leave new old stock knives with the original factory edge to preserve the history of their manufacture, but these were not quite usable. We have taken the liberty of sharpening the edge so the knife is usable. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"box of old knives","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48053249704157,"sku":"VIN1333","price":89.75,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0455\/3339\/7144\/files\/DSC04062_8da2dc78-10be-48bd-ae17-d34b67ade6a2.jpg?v=1781907269","url":"https:\/\/bernalcutlery.com\/en-au\/products\/new-old-stock-la-suprema-10-25-pasta-knife-carbon-plum-wood-handle-maniago-italy-1950s-60s-copy","provider":"Bernal Cutlery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
