Mac Coltellerie

The handicraft activity that had developed in Maniago already in ancient times and had started to grow and develope in what today is a true and proper industry specialized in knives and cutting tools.

It was in these surroundings that during the 1920's our business began, when Di Bon Giovanni, at that time 14 years old, started to work manufacturing knives.

In 1936, Giovanni together with other partners created a small factory that worked for other knife manufacturers.

In 1958, his son Roberto also entered in partnership.

In 1964 the present Mac Coltellerie was founded, and that oriented its production towards the classical little knives for souvenirs and promotional.

Afterwards Mac made it's first passes in creating other types of knives thanks to Roberto's experience in sports. Thus, around 1978, the first hunting and diving knives were produced. And at this point our company started a process of variety enlarging the production of diving knives and starting to produce nautical, fishing and rescue knives. With the growing production firm a bigger factory was needed and in 1984, Mac moved to the industrial zone where it is as of today.
