Knife manufacturer Hornhecht

📍 Cammin

Richard Lehmann forges - by hand and with great passion. The finest knives suitable for everyday use are made primarily from Damascus steel that he folds himself. The knives are given a special character not only by the blacksmith's creativity, but also by the antiquarian spindle press, which shapes the glowing iron with up to 30 tons of pressure. Each piece is unique. Prefabricated blanks or industrial handles are out of the question for the blacksmith. The various types of steel are carefully combined and processed into blade shapes that are second to none. The knife maker uses wood, antlers and horn from all over the world as handle materials. In addition, "upcycling" is taken to a new level in this small barn workshop. For example, old, battered humpback knives are fitted with new olive wood handles and given a new lease of life. The blacksmith provides insights into his workshop. He heats up the forge and demonstrates various techniques, including the screw press. Coffee and cake are served.

Weaving mill Kranich

📍 Cammin

Hand-woven, hand-spun, hand-dyed - made of wool, silk, linen and cotton. Fine and special unique pieces for everyday use. In the "Kranich weaving mill", fine individual pieces are created from various yarns such as silk, wool, linen or cotton. Whether scarves, blankets, cushions or towels - all pieces are hand-woven, often from hand-spun and hand-dyed raw material. The products are intended for everyday use and set special accents in everyday life. The weaver gives an insight into the creation of the textiles and demonstrates some techniques in the Hofgarten. There will also be "wool chats" over coffee and cake.
