Sami Craft – A Private Collection

More than 40 years ago, my wife and I decided to meet the Sami craftsmen whose work we had been collecting for over 60 years. This marked the beginning of many exciting and memorable journeys. We hired a camper, planned carefully, and hit the road.

As members of the Swedish Knifemakers Association, honorary members of the American Knifemakers Guild and the Italian Knifemakers Guild, and having experience judging knife competitions, we felt we had a solid foundation for interesting encounters with the artisans.

Sami craftsmanship is something truly unique – a tradition passed down through many generations. The Sami's craft of wood, horn, leather, silver, and rootwork is unparalleled in both function and artistry.

Collecting it is not only a way to preserve and honour Sami culture, but also a way to understand their way of life and work. The skilled craftsmanship, so closely tied to nature and the Sami way of life, is more than just handicrafts – it is a living cultural tradition.
