Thor Bjørklund (1889 – 1975) was a cabinetmaker from Lillehammer. He had been thinking for a long time about how the cheese could be cut more neatly. The idea turned into a tool that was both kinder to the cheese and the household budget. The cheese grater was so unique that he patented it in 1925. This was the start of an industrial adventure and a Norwegian icon that is still alive and well, almost 100 years later.

The first 75 years of this rich history are documented in the book Skjær pent av osten , written by Kristian Hosar and published in the year 2000. Production is still ongoing in Gudbrandsdalen and under the name Bjørklund1925. Thor Bjørklund's cheese graters cut cheese all over the world to this day.
