Presentation

I was born 1963 in Ethiopia, where my parents were missionaries.

In 1976 we moved back to Sweden again, to a village called Mellansel – a small railroad community. This is where I met Karin, my wife, and we got married in 1988.
Between 1984-1988 I studied at Umeå University. I have a degree in social work.
After University we moved to Uppsala where we lived for a few years.

I crafted my first knife at the age of 15 but during our time in Uppsala I became more serious about this craft.
In 1994 we moved back to the north of Sweden, to a very small village called Lövånger.
In November 2004 a new phase in my knife crafting started, I set up my own business called:

carlMichael
Handmade knives and things

In 2008 my wife Karin died after a few years of illness. Today I live by myself and I am working part time as a social worker at a school nearby.
