Guest Knife Designers

Swedish survival expert Lars Fält

Lars Fält 

We had the privilege of working with Lars for many years, during which Casström and Lars collaborated to design and produce three knives, as well as translate five of his bushcraft and survival books into English.

Lars Fält was a world-renowned survival expert and outdoorsman. His career began in the Swedish Army, where he founded the Swedish Armed Forces Survival School and served as its Chief Instructor for many years. Following his military career, Lars dedicated himself to educating civilians with a passion for the outdoors. Over his lifetime, he authored more than ten books on bushcraft and survival skills.

Through his teaching, writing, and leadership, Lars had a profound and lasting impact on the world of bushcraft and survival, influencing generations of practitioners across the globe and helping to shape modern outdoor knowledge and practice.

The very popular Casström Woodsman knife was designed by Roger.
