        Roger Bergh started his knifemaking career working with leather in 1969. By 1973 he was making knife handles. And by 1995 after 15 years as a part-time knifemaker he started forging his own Damascus steel under the supervision and training of Conny Persson.

        Most of his knives are collectible, all-purpose straight knives – yet extremely functional. Each knife is one-of-a-kind and is made from beautiful organic materials. The materials are used as they were shaped by nature, to create a knife that feels right in your hand.

        Roger is also extensively featured in David Darom’s book on the best fixed-blade knife makers in the world.
