Coltellerie Berti: handmade knives since 1895
The Brotherhood of the
Grape
Friends and supporters of Coltellerie Berti. The expression ‘Brotherhood of the Grape’ comes from the
title of a book by a famous Italian-American writer about a
small group of Italian friends who emigrated to America. As
well as drinking plenty of good Moscatello, the members of
this group, like all Italian immigrants, were wont to carry
their knives with them. Ah, what a wonderful thing! This
section is dedicated to them: here, if you want to, you can
include your name and the name of your favourite knife. In
short, you can profess your love for Berti knives and all
that they represent. All you need to do is send an e-mail :
we will check the content of the mail
(just to ensure, no doubt needlessly, that there are no
excessively ‘colourful’ expressions!) and then publish it.
Who knows what will come of it all … Andrea Berti
