Nestled in the tranquil landscape of Upper Lusatia, imposing medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings blend seamlessly with the charm of a small town brimming with cultural life. Known as the political and cultural center of the Sorbs, Bautzen welcomes visitors year after year with warmth, hospitality, and a wealth of history, promising an unforgettable experience. This small town on the Spree River not only preserves its buildings and customs but also celebrates traditional crafts.
On Tuchmacherstraße, Jens Adam is passionately dedicated to the art of blade making and can now look back on 20 years of self-employment (as of 2023). He successfully completed his master craftsman's examination as a cutting tool mechanic in 1999 and has owned the Sellnau grinding shop, whose origins date back to 1900, since 2003. Besides sharpening and repairing knives, scissors, saw blades, and other cutting tools, sales are a key focus. However, a large selection is only half as valuable without expert advice. Here, Jens Adam and his team, wearing blacksmith's aprons, possessing extensive background knowledge, and offering a wide range of services, ensure customer satisfaction.
Böker has been a proud partner of the Sellnau knife sharpening workshop since 1990 and forms an important pillar of their product range, especially in the area of pocket knives and outdoor knives. " I appreciate the wide selection and the straightforward cooperation with Böker's sales and service teams. Even minor and major requests are addressed and processed quickly and efficiently." Customers also frequently return for the occasional rare item , such as the Böker Leopard- Damast III 42. Jens Adam is equally impressed by its sister model, the Leopard- Damast III: " Superb materials, a beautiful Damascus pattern, a well-balanced weight, and a solid feel in the hand make this elegantly designed pocket knife a true luxury item for a belt pouch or display case ."
Culture meets cult – Anyone who is enchanted by Saxony's pearl Bautzen should not miss the charm of the long-established Sellnau grinding mill.
