Oven safe handles are very overrated, and not needed. Consider the absurdity of the situation where a complete novice and first-time purchaser of carbon steel pans thinks he knows how to design these pans better than companies that have been making them for longer than he has been alive. Oven seasoning may make sense for cast iron, which is so massive and heats unevenly on a stovetop, but carbon steel pans are designed to be seasoned on your stovetop. It's way quicker to season this way, and you get as good or a better result.

That said, I also recommend the Carbone Plus series. You can get them from Knives And Tools, and from E.Dehillerin, both based in Europe, but this is the first time I've seen a full line offered in the US. They are the same as the Mineral B, but just have a different color epoxy handle, no little yellow "B" thing that can fall out, and they don't have the etched "B" on the cooking surface. Mineral B is good too. I just like the simpler aesthetics of the Carbone Plus. Mineral B Pro is my favorite, though, just because the handles stay cool for so long.
