I
made my first knife about 25 years ago. It is neither beautiful nor
functional, but I still have it. Since then I have kept on making knives
with various intensity. I spent a few years in the landscape of Dalarna
and was inspired by the multitude of cutlers living there
The
knife blades I use are forged by well-known blacksmiths (specialised on
forging knife blades). For the handles I use different sorts of wood,
and often wood in combination with e.g. horn or some other hard
material. I use both Swedish and foreign wood sorts. For the moment I
have a quantity of ebony at my disposal. The knife sheaths are made of
leather, sometimes in combination with wood or horn.
In
my small carpenter workshop in the cellar I have the possibility to work
with various
kinds of wood carving products
