Bastards Knives Arronax Silver Plated

Silver meets Steampunk

The Bastard Knives Arronax Slipjoint has been silver-plated by hand in our Altonaer Silberwerkstatt. The result is not a sterile high gloss, but a vivid finish with intentionally darkened areas – an effect that highlights every contour and gives the knife an almost antique depth. This interplay of light and shadow lends the Arronax a nearly historical aura.

Developed by Bastard Knives in collaboration with the “Mad Professor” Stefan Steigerwald, the Arronax is a homage to Jules Verne’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. The Verne vibe runs through every detail: playful Art Deco elements meet clear, industrial-inspired lines – now emphasized even more by the silver plating.

This Version

Brass handle scales with a satin-finished D2 blade, silver-plated in Hamburg. The patina accentuates the milled holes and structured recesses, highlighting the retro-futuristic look.

Warning / Safety Notice:

Risk of cuts: The most common hazard when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can easily penetrate skin and tissue.

Blade slippage: Improper handling or applying excessive force may cause the knife to slip, leading to uncontrolled movements and potential injury.

Injuries from falling knives: Knives should never be left unsecured or placed near the edge of tables or work surfaces, as they may fall and cause injury.

Dull blades: Dull knives pose a higher risk of injury, as they require more force and are more likely to slip. Knives should therefore be sharpened regularly and properly.

Improper use: Using a knife for purposes other than its intended use (e.g. as a prying tool) can damage the blade and may result in accidents.
