Just got back from 10 days in Italy. Took some pics of the knives I came across.

Wow! Thanks for sharing!
When my wife and I spent two weeks in Italy 2 years ago, I wanted to buy an Italian knife to bring back. But, no matter what shops I could find in the little towns we visited, most of the knives were just cheap imported junk or those that were made in Italy were lesser quality than you would find with FOX knives.
I ended up buying a large 4" bladed paring knife that is quite good and we use it in the kitchen nearly every day. Good price, too.

Thanks again for sharing all those pics!
Where did you go in Italy and what town(s) were the shops located in???

Regards,
Mike

Most of those pics are from one shop/cart in Florence. The third and second to the last are from Venice and the last pic was from an antique fair in Rome.

Had an amazing time. If the exchange rate didn't make everything so expensive I might have considered buying something lol.

Glad I could share and contribute something to this great forum.
