KOVAŠTVO K ovaštvo se je pojavilo že pred 12. stoletjem, postalo je ena pomembnejših obrti, ki se je prenašala iz roda v rod. Kovačije orodnih kovačev so bile ob potokih. Tam je sila vode poganjala kovaški meh in veliko kladivo imenovano norec ali repač. Izdelovali so nujne predmete za kmetije: motike, lopate, rovnice, sekire, krampe, plužne nože, okovje za vozove, žeblje za stavbarstvo. Za gospodinije so izdelovali burkle.
METAL FORGING T he craft of metal forging spread through our lands before the 12th century and became one of the most important crafts that were passed down from one generation to another. Smithies of blacksmiths who made metal tools were located at the streams because they used water force to mobilize the bellows and a huge hammer, called “norec” or “repač”. Blacksmiths made objects that were essential for the rural lifestyle: hoes, shovels, hatchets, pickaxes, plough knives, fetters for wagons, nails for architecture and a burkle (a special tool for shifting pots and dishes in the farmhouse stoves or managing fire in the fireplace) for the housewives.
