I am born in 1971. I live in the village of Sämstad, on the west coast of Sweden. I made my first knife in the wood shop in school at age 15. In 1992, I begun working as a church janitor, a job much like a gardener, and on the break, I started making knives again. I then heard about the Swedish Knifemakers´ Association, so I called them up and joined the organization.in 2002, the first time I attended the Swedish Championship, I became Swedish Champion.

        After a week’s crash course in 2007, in the art of engraving with GRS instructor Sam Alfano, I have continued teaching myself in this wonderful art. All steel engravings and gold inlays on my knives are done by me.

        I make all kinds of knives – stick and full tang fixed blades, folders, and daggers. I am not afraid of trying to make new sorts of knives as long as the design is good. However now days, fancy engraved folders are closest to my heart.
