Abstract:
This article conveys efforts to diversify and increase the value of blacksmiths products in Kranggan and Keprabon villages, Polanharjo sub-district, Klaten district, Central Java. The blacksmiths center in Polanharjo sub-district has long been known as a producer of agricultural equipment and household utensils. However, the product variants produced so far are still traditional, as well as local, middle to lower market segments.
Research activities carried out apply the method of action research, with the intention that researchers can really feel the real life of the blacksmiths, so that existing problems can be analyzed and given the right solution. One form of diversification of blacksmiths products in Polanharjo is the making of pamor knives with appropriate packaging.
Pamor knives along with the packaging produced are then exhibited and published to get a response from the public. The result can be followed up as a superior product, besides not leaving traditional products which until now the market segment is still running.
