Craftsmanship is beautiful because it is varied

The colours of the materials from which the handicrafts are made may vary from those shown in the pictures.

Horn, wood and cornotech are raw materials that by their nature have a marked variability from one supply to another: that's the beauty of fine materials. Add craftsmanship, where the craftsman's hand never makes the same gesture: that's the beauty of fine workmanship. Combine all this and you have a product that is always different and unique. And always different from that unique and unrepeatable product that, necessarily, we have to photograph if we want you to understand what we are talking about and what we are offering you.

Il fascicolo di febbraio-marzo 2014 è dedicato al Cic show, l’esposizione tenutasi a Milano lo scorso dicembre nella quale oltre ottanta knifemakers hanno esibito i loro pezzi, affascinando e attirando i desideri del migliaio di visitatori della mostra.

Nella cover story rivolgiamo la nostra attenzione a Fabrizio Silvestrelli (in arte Silvester), il coltellinaio bresciano che da ormai 20 anni si è specializzato nella realizzazione di coltelli artigianali che colpiscono per la bellezza delle forme, la precisione delle lavorazioni e l’accostamento dei materiali.

Nel mondo custom troviamo anche l’eclettica produzione di Mauro Bonassi, da poco maestro della Corporazione italiana coltellinai, e quella del giovane sardo Davide Steri che è riuscito, attraverso le sue creazioni, a unire sperimentazione e tradizione.

In questo numero potete trovare il reportage sul simposio delle tecniche di forgiatura tenutosi nella suggestiva cornice del maglio di Pagnano d’Asolo, organizzato dal laboratorio La Britola di Valdobbiadene.

Inoltre Coltelli recencisce le lame (in particolare i modelli TSP, TS-1, FM-1, NAV-H e NAV-T) della Medford, coltelli militari prodotti in piccola tiratura negli Usa e i modelli Sierra Foxtrott II e III della Boker, due nuove lame fisse d’impostazione militare che appartengono alla linea Magnum e che offrono un rapporto qualità prezzo davvero inaspettato. Una novità di importazione Tecnocut sono le penne tattiche: oltre a essere accattivanti e ben realizzate, possono contare su un prezzo davvero interessante. Infine una vera chicca. Beretta non significa solo armi da fuoco: la storica Casa gardonese ha a listino un’ampia varietà di coltelli, dall’utility alle lame di pregio da abbinare a un fucile di prestigio disegnate da knifemaker di fama come Silvester (sì, proprio lui, il protagonista della nostra cover story).

This knife owes its name to the blunt tip which is absolutely missing as if the blade had been cut off.
Pointless knives became much more widespread with the "Giolitti law" of 1908 which fixed the length of the blade of pointed knives at only four centimeters.
For mozzette, the limit rose to ten centimeters, offering the possibility of safely carrying a knife of sufficient size in your pocket without risking the rigors of the law.

The "Roman" testifies to the widespread mentality in the Papal States for which the knife was considered as a faithful friend to be constantly worn "in his pocket" and to be unleashed at the first hint of a fight or for an immediate response.

Many elements constituting the "Roman" bear witness to the offensive use that distinguished this knife: the sharp blade, the decorations of the lattice handle or fish bone that served to improve the grip, the locking system with fixed spring that prevented the knife could close up accidentally and that at the time of the opening emitted a dry noise that exalted the aggressive expression.
