The Fish and Hook - When Göran Fredrik Göransson started producing saw blades in 1886, it became apparent that a brand was needed that could communicate the blades’ special properties and quality. The choice was made to identify the brand with the fish and the hook, as everybody knew that fish hooks were only made with the highest quality steel, the same steel from which Bahco saws and cutting tools were forged.

This is how Bahco’s iconic brand logo was born, no letters, words or sophisticated figures, just a symbol, one that everyone could understand and recognise across the world. The fish and the hook remain a symbol of quality to this day.
