Bo Bergman (2) (1940–)

This book is primarly written for those who begin with little or no experience and who aren't familiar with carpentry and its various tools. This book is also for all those who have no one to ask for help and who dream of making a knife. After discussing in detail all aspects of constructing the knife and sheath, the author takes you through the making of ten different knives that are truly beautiful. Since this book originally came from Sweden, the blades have a distinct Scandinavian look.

Bo Bergman might not yet be known outside Scandinavia, but here he has been one of the brightest shining stars in the area of creative knifemaking for over a decade. His book "Knifemaking" is a compilation of two of his bestselling books and it contains all the things you need to know to become a passionate craftsman.
The instructions are very easy to follow and a lot of pictures and illustrations guide you through all the steps. Througout the text you can really tell that Bo Bergman not only knows what he is talking about, but also that he also loves what he is doing.
I highly recommend this book to anyone that wishes to express themselves through a very beautyful and long lasting art.… (mehr)
