    1. [NOR] Skomager vs Træskomager
    2. Bev Anderson
    3. I know a Skomager is a shoemaker, and Træskomager is another kind of shoemaker. Does Skomager denote making shoes of all kinds, including leather shoes..., whereas Træskomager is wooden shoes only? I couldn't find anything in Otto's dictionary or in Haugen's that would list the distinction, so I must turn to those of you who are fluent in Norwegian, old and new. Mange Takk! Bev
