About Manuele Messori
Manuele Messori is an Italian knifemaker renowned for his handcrafted knives that blend functionality with artistic design. Based in Arceto, a village near Reggio Emilia, Italy, Messori began his knifemaking journey in 2010 after a friend challenged him to create a knife from a piece of forged truck leaf spring. Since then, he has dedicated himself to the craft, continually experimenting with materials and techniques to produce unique pieces. Messori's knives are distinguished by their use of high-quality materials such as Damascus steel, ATS 34, RWL34, and Elmax for blades. For handles, he incorporates synthetic materials, titanium, zirconium, and stabilized burl woods. His designs often feature a fusion of tactical functionality and collector's appeal, aiming to bridge the gap between practical use and aesthetic value.
