About
Il Museo dell'Arte Fabbrile e delle Coltellerie ha sede in un luogo simbolo della storia fabbrile di Maniago, nel grande stabilimento industriale che iniziò la propria attività come Co.Ri.Ca.Ma. (Coltellerie Riunite di Caslino e Maniago) nel 1907. In un paese che ospitava in ogni casa e cortile piccole officine artigianali a conduzione familiare, questa fabbrica diede lavoro a centinaia di operaie e operai fino alla chiusura nel 1972. Acquistato dal Comune e recuperato dallo stato di abbandono, diventa la sede naturale del Museo e ospita dal 2009 un percorso espositivo affascinante e efficace, che recupera le radici e gli sviluppi della produzione locale e industriale di oggetti da taglio.

We weren’t sure what to expect at the “Knife Musuem,” as we’ve only heard about it. We took our 3 kids (5 and younger) with us and we enjoyed the trip. There is a clear wall with knives and other tools stuck in them (probably 50 or more) and you can grab the handles and feel the differences between the designs. We liked watched the small demonstration box which showed us the machines in action on a small scale. There is a movie in Italian which tells of the museums history and a few other areas which describe the knives machinery.

Just happened to drop by while visiting town and was greatly surprised. The outside and entry were a little cold, but once inside the museum the staff and displays were truly fantastic. I have worked on a museum project before and the displays really made the history and technology come to life. Staff was super helpful and friendly. Will be back.

The local river made this industry possible by powering the knife making. Hard to believe how many specialty knives, scythes, scissors etc for hunting, defense, harvest, grape tending, sewing, you name it!! Some info in England sh was helpful.

Maniago was the Italian capital for knives manufacturing for the past couple hundreds year and the museum displays original equipment and tools from the years past. Exhibits are very well presented and the knifes collection most impressive!

An interesting look at knife making in this region over the years. We don't put much thought into it when we use a knife, but you will appreciate the fine details after visiting the museum.

This is a wonderful museum! It takes knife making from a cottage industry to modern times. Then, shortly after I returned home, I hear that the knife makers won a prestigious award in San Franciso, CA. They are still going strong!

Being able to create a museum, talking about ironwork, that is compelling is a difficult undertaking. The museum is located in the last "large" factory, completely renovated after years of abandonment. The exhibition is extremely careful, both in the choice of materials and in the lights. The ground floor is dedicated to the history and production of knives, but unfortunately the captions are only in Italy. The upper floor is dedicated to people and products. Truly a nice result.

I visited this museum as a tourist by booking the "A Strokes of Memory" activity. What to say? I liked everything: the professionalism and passion shown by the museum staff, the layout of the museum and the validity of the proposed activity. As an art history teacher I appreciated the transversality of the path (suitable for schools and also for adults) and the desire to tell a museum in a different and fun way. I really hope that this path can find the right space. The museum's layout is clear and tells the story of Maniago's cutlery factories from its origins to the present day. Also interesting is the reference to the street vendors of Valcellina who contributed to the growth of Maniago's fame as the home of quality cutlery products.
