Nice Place to Visit
#1

The Zippo/Case Museum and shop in Bradford, PA.  Good history there and plenty to see.

My wife's sister lives about 20 miles east of Toledo, and it wouldn't be too far out of the way to stop in the Case Museum in Bradford on the way home. I have a bunch of Case knives & used to use nothing but Zippos when I smoked years ago. I often thought about stopping on the way back, but my wife wouldn't enjoy it, and we usually pretty much just want to get home anyway. 

There's also the GEC factory in Titusville. Several years ago, Great Eastern Cutlery bought up and combined what remained of Titusville Cutlery, Northfield Cutlery, and Un-X-Ld Cutlery in Titusville. They put out some nice traditional knives in the same patterns as the old companies, but on a smaller scale than Case. A little more pricey too. They have a Rendezvous there every Summer for a weekend, where knife knuts gather, tour the factory, a big dinner, sell & trade knives, etc.
