THE BAHCO HISTORY

DISCOVER THE BAHCO'S 165 YEARS OF HISTORY.

1862
Göran Fredrik Göransson founded Högbo Stål and Jernwerks AB in Sweden to produce the highest quality steel, pioneering the Bessemer process and unknowingly laying the groundwork for our first saw blade.
1886
Göran used the high quality steel, previously moulded to make fish hooks, to begin the production of our first saw blades. To communicate their quality, every blade carried the Fish and Hook trademark.
1892
Johan Petter Johansson invented the adjustable spanner, which formed the basis for the adjustable wrench - a Swedish invention found all over the world!
1916
Berndt August Hjorth bought Enköpings Mekaniska Verkstad in its entirety from Johan Petter Johansson - it shortened it's name to become known as Bahco.
1969
The introduction of the bi-metal hacksaw blade Sandflex® heralded a new era in metal-cutting blade technology.

THE FISH & HOOK STORY

SO WHY DO...Bahco products carry a fish and a hook?

After Göran Fredrik Göransson had established his steel mill in 1862, the European steel industry in the eighteen seventies had a long depression with low prices for general steel and crude steel products. The prices for processed steel were much better, which created an interest in processing the steel further. In 1876 the existing steel rolling mill was changed to produce so-called milled steel.

When the production of saw blades commenced in 1886 there was a need for a brand, which could communicate the blades' special properties and quality, and the choice was - quite naturally - the fish and hook.
