About this listen

Giovanni Sartori is a bladesmith and swordmaker from Bassano del Grappa, in Italy.

His work centers around recreating weapons that are authentic not only in terms of measurements and proportions but also in terms of materials and processes. This holistic approach to swordmaking has led to his work being displayed in several museums, including the Deutsches Klingenmuseum in Solingen.

In today's chat, Giovanni discusses his approach to studying and making swords with host Gabriele Culot, and dives into the world of Medieval and early modern bladesmithing in Northern Italy.
