We
are very proud to feature the knives produced by the
Fogarizzu's from Pattada in Sardinia. They have a centenary tradition in
knife making, with the "resolza" type,
the traditional shepherds knife that is now becoming a
symbol of the tradition and
beauty of the Italian island, then with the traditional and
modern Italian style and artistic production. The authors are masters
with the various knives' materials and with their family
background in steel forging and
hardening they also have a tradition in producing the
damascus steel for their knives blades, bolsters, handles or
any other knife part. Don't wonder that these
knifes have won international consideration in Europe, Japan and
the States. Amongst other magazines and newspapers the
knives authors won recognition from "The New York
Times" 26 July 1998 ("Getting to the Heart of
Sardinia"), all
thanks their skills in knife making. All
knives come with an original certificate signed by the
author. Each knife is a unique handmade piece although the
more traditional types are not numbered to recognize that the
"idea" pertain to the tradition.
