About us
About Casstrom Sweden, our knives & outdoor accessories and what we stand for
Casström develops high-quality knives and outdoor equipment in Sweden with an individual style built on solid craftsmanship, sustainable materials and ethical manufacturing. With this focus, Casström has quickly become one of Scandinavia’s leading brands of knives for bushcraft & survival, hunting, and outdoor activities. Our designs are rooted in the Swedish knife-making tradition, blended with contemporary advances in materials and techniques. Our mission is continuous development, ensuring that we produce well-crafted and high-performance tools that outdoor knife users greatly enjoy. The knives are entirely made in Europe and come with a 25-year warranty.
The company is based in the small trading town of Lycksele, deep in the boreal forest of Swedish Lapland. Set by the Ume River, Lycksele is centrally located in the Northern Scandinavian wilderness area and has been a place where people have met and done business for hundreds of years. There is a small showroom in Lycksele and an online shop, yet most sales take place mainly through a network of retailers across the world.

The Sustainable Edge
Our goal has always been to produce knives that last a very long time, but we also want to take sustainability further. Our vision is to produce knives of the highest quality, with as little environmental impact as possible. By utilizing energy-efficient methods of production, coupled with natural and sustainable raw materials, we believe this is possible. Today, Casström chooses to use recycled steel wherever possible, wood from sustainable forests, and European vegetable-tanned leather. Our premises are heated using geothermal energy, and our electricity comes from carbon-neutral sources. We are taking responsibility for our environmental footprint and will continue to develop our business in this way seeking to become even more sustainable.
