Warnings & Information
Sale prohibited to persons under 18 according to Italian regulations for recreational knives; keep out of reach of minors
Use only in a safe, controlled environment: choose open spaces free of bystanders, animals, and fragile objects; always verify the flipping trajectory before practice
Before each use, inspect blade and handle mechanism: ensure no cracks, bends, or excessive play in handle sections; if defects are found, cease use and seek qualified repair or replacement
Do not modify blade or handle: unauthorized sharpening or balance alterations compromise the original design, unpredictable behavior, and increase injury risk

Storage: place the knife into its velvet-lined pouch inside the magnetic box to protect blade and pivot from impacts, moisture, and dust when not in use
Lubrication: if needed, apply a suitable lubricant for stainless steel pivots; avoid lubricants on grip surfaces to prevent slipping
Be mindful of hand fatigue or skin irritation during extended flipping sessions, especially in hot conditions without ventilation; take breaks as needed
Dispose of irreparably damaged or worn components according to local metal waste regulations, ensuring the blade is safely covered during disposal
Use responsibly and in compliance with local laws regarding butterfly knives; do not employ the knife for purposes other than controlled manipulation practice or collection
