Nino Nista Mozzetta Hornspitze
Das MOZETTA ist ein typisches italienische Messer Modell - geboren aus einer "Not" heraus.
Das Mozetta gefertigt ohne Klingenspitze, tauchte Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts erstmals auf, als in der Toskana nach immer mehr Morden spitze Messer per Gesetz verboten wurden
Das 1908 erlassene Giolitti Gesetz begrenzt das Tragen von Messern. Es dürfen Messer mitgeführt werden, deren Klinge maximal 10 cm lang ist und deren Spitze stumpf ist.
Das feine Mozetta ist aus einem Stück Hornspitze gefertigt. Die Rückenfeder ist schlicht verziert. Die im Finish satinierte Klinge ist aus X20 CR13 Stahl gefertigt und hält mittels Slipjoint.
NINO NISTA Italien
Nino Nista Italy
The forge of Giovanni Nista, better known as "Nino", was created in 1990 by reproducing three traditional Italian knives. He learnt the basics of blacksmithing from Odorico Lucantoni, who designed the famous "pescatore" for fishermen on the Adriatic, which is mainly associated with the city of Ancona, although it is widely used in Abruzzo.
The "Pescatore" is also the knife that Nino makes most often. Previously, he improved his skills in designing various models of his own, but now forges regional knives such as the Romano and the Siciliani faithfully following the ancient model in order to preserve the traditional shapes.
The forge is located in San Benedetto del Tronto in the Marche region. In his shop, which is divided into a salesroom and a workshop, you can admire various beautifully handcrafted individual pieces. The perfection of the finished knife is guaranteed by the selection of the best materials and the fact that it is made entirely by hand.
