Having had enough of cutting cheese with a regular knife, Norwegian carpenter Thor Bjørklund invented and patented the ostehøvel in 1925. Two years later he began manufacturing his new cheese slicer in Lillehammer, and today Bjørklund’s invention remains a symbol of Norwegian quality and design. During its almost century-long history, the shape and features of the cheese slicer have been developed and modernised, and many replicas have followed. But, still made in Norway, Bjørklund ostehøvel is the original and the core of the brand’s assortment, which now also includes knives and other kitchen utensils.
