Coltelli - Numero 62 - Febbraio/Marzo 2014 - rivista
Rivista a colori Bimestrale prodotta e distribuita in Italia specializzata in coltelli di tutti i tipi (collezione, artigianali, militari, sportivi, multiuso…). 82 Pagine
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).

Coltelli - Numero 58 - Giugno/Luglio 2013 - rivista
Rivista a colori Bimestrale prodotta e distribuita in Italia specializzata in coltelli di tutti i tipi (collezione, artigianali, militari, sportivi, multiuso…). 96 Pagine
È un numero internazionale quello di Coltelli che avete tra le mani. Siamo, infatti, andati a cercare all’estero le tendenze e le soluzioni adottate per superare la grande crisi economica. A partire dalla storia di copertina, che ha per protagonista un bel coltello del danese Jesper Voxnaes, da molti conosciuto come "Vox", incontrato a marzo all’Iwa di Norimberga, la più grande fiera europea dedicata al mondo delle armi. Vox vive a Løgstrup, vicino ai fiordi, nella zona Nord dello Jutland, e costruisce coltelli esteticamente accattivanti ma al contempo utili e funzionali. Lasciamo il filone “belli ma utili” per entrare in quello delle lame da sogno: Coltelli vi accompagna in una delle mostre più ambite a livello mondiale, il Boston Art Knife Classic al quale vengono invitati 20 dei migliori coltellinai a livello mondiale che possono portate al massimo otto lame da mostrare ai 150 collezionisti presenti alla mostra. Più “terrestre” è la mostra di Livorno (rispetto a quella “spaziale” di Boston, naturalmente), organizzata con grande merito, in un periodo così difficile per la coltelleria custom italiana, da Lc Coltelleria e dall’Associazione coltellinai livornese: un segno forte della volontà di continuare a credere nella qualità dei nostri prodotti, tanto apprezzati Oltreoceano. Nel settore della coltelleria sportiva, abbiamo cercato di mostrarvi esempi di bellezza e utilità nel mondo delle lame. Dall’Extrema Ratio Task, nato per compiti gravosi, e dalle pinze multiuso di Leatherman e Victorinox fino ai Böxer Exskelibur 1 e 2 allo Spyderco Pingo, dietro ai quali stanno due knifemaker famosi come il sudafricano Mike Skellern e… il nostro amico Vox.coltelli58 -
Coltelli - Numero 57 - Aprile/Maggio 2013 - rivista
Rivista a colori Bimestrale prodotta e distribuita in Italia specializzata in coltelli di tutti i tipi (collezione, artigianali, militari, sportivi, multiuso…). 96 Pagine
È in edicola il nuovo numero di Coltelli, ricco di numerose novità dal mondo delle lame artigianali e industriali. Tra i knifemaker del numero di aprile/maggio 2013 della rivista, vi presentiamo Antonio Farina, maestro della Corporazione italiana coltellinai, titolo di cui si fregia anche Pietro Elias, l’altro protagonista del mondo custom che abbiamo intervistato. Per quanto riguarda gli eventi, vi parleremo dell’East Cost Custom Show, svoltosi a marzo a New York. Non mancano alcuni scatti ai coltelli esposti alla fiera di Ferrara; inoltre vi è stato a Scarperia il Concorso nazionale per il miglior coltello amatoriale. È un coltello molto speciale quello realizzato da Ted M. Dowell, commissionato dall’organizzatore della prestigiosa Art Knife Invitational, Phil Lobred. Dopo aver affrontato (nello scorso numero) il tema del damasco ritorto, ora tratteremo il damasco esploso: come si forgia e i suoi impieghi. E ancora… tante tante lame: l’Extrema Ratio Pugio, l’americana Ka-bar con i suoi machete (e altre chicche), un multifunzione di Antonini pensato per il personale di soccorso, civile e militare, i nuovi lama fissa di Fantoni (il C.U.T) e Viper (il Carnera). Zwilling ci mette a disposizione la linea completa dei nuovi coltelli da cucina, Beltrame propone una rivisitazione del classico stiletto e da Mora una simpatica e colorata integrazione tra accendifuoco e coltello. Vi presenteremo, infine, le indicazioni e le modalità per partecipare ad una nuova iniziativa di Coltelli: se avete in mente un coltello da tavola, disegnate il progetto e inviatelo alla redazione. Il vincitore potrà vedere materializzarsi in acciaio e legno il suo coltello ideale, e ricevere in premio il primo set da quattro pezzi realizzato. Buona fortuna e… buona lettura!coltelli57 -

Takeshi Saji - Sakura Petty Rainbow Damascus - 135mm - kitchen knife
Takeshi Saji was born in 1948 in Takefu (Fukui prefecture), a city located roughly in the center of Japan and in the heart of an area for centuries devoted to the production of blades. His workshop is still there, built around the oven thanks to which, for several years now, Takeshi Saji forges steel (especially damascus) with which he makes various models of traditional Japanese knives. The choice of materials for the finishes (mainly natural), the essential lines - evocative of use - and the chromatic combinations of rare impact make his creations unique and unmistakable in the panorama of world cutlery and, at home, they have earned him the prestigious title of Master.
The blade is equipped with a central plate in Blue Steel carbon steel coated on the sides with layers of steel, brass and copper plates that help to increase the resistance to oxidation and resilience.
Once again, Master Saji has succeeded in creating an innovative new art style for his knives, combining the traditional "Sakura-Maki" handle and the striking rainbow Damascus blade.

Takeshi Saji - Chef's Bunka Knife 180mm with Desert Ironwood Handle - SPG2 Damascus - kitchen knife
Takeshi Saji was born in 1948 in Takefu (Fukui prefecture), a city located roughly in the center of Japan and in the heart of an area for centuries devoted to the production of blades. His workshop is still there, built around the oven thanks to which, for several years now, Takeshi Saji forges steel (especially damascus) with which he makes various models of traditional Japanese knives. The choice of materials for the finishes (mainly natural), the essential lines - evocative of use - and the chromatic combinations of rare impact make his creations unique and unmistakable in the panorama of world cutlery and, at home, they have earned him the prestigious title of Master.

Rockstead - Shin knife DLC - YXR7 - knife
This knife blade is convex on both sides in the tradition of the highly praised Japanese sword. This shape is both sharp and strong, and can still slice cleanly through a sheet of paper even after the punishment of chopping and cutting through dried bamboo. Using this special blade shape is an excellent way of allowing an edge to be thick without sacrificing any of its sharpness. This knife is of preeminent sharpness. This is a durable knife with strong cutting capabilities that will last for a long time. Even when used for rigorous cutting, the blade will not bite or catch thanks to its convex shape. Other knives will often bite or catch, and may acquire nicks if pulled out suddenly.
