Rixdorfer Schmiede

The Rixdorfer Schmiede operates as a functioning metalworking facility where artisans create handmade knives, tools, and decorative items using traditional forging methods.

First documented in 1624, this blacksmith workshop has maintained an active forge fire for nearly 400 years, making it the oldest continuously operating smithy in Berlin.

The workshop preserves metalworking traditions through educational programs where participants learn hammer techniques and basic forging skills from professional blacksmiths.

Located at Richardplatz 28 in Berlin, the facility specializes in crafting high-quality kitchen knives and provides restoration services for historical metal components.

The workshop produces the ClassRIX knife series using locally sourced wood materials, combining centuries of craftsmanship with modern design requirements.
