Another Solingen Video - Cottage Industry
Not trying to steal Martin's thunder. He has put up some great videos but I thought this deserved its own thread. I googled "cottage industry Solingen" because I remembered reading , in a knife book years ago, that a lot of Solingen's cutlery was made by individual craftsman working in separate cottages. One guy doing grinding, another scales and the like. So I came upon this German language video series on Knife forums. Good stuff.
