Shops that sell Sheffield Things?

Recommended Posts

There's a shop that sells Sheffield clothing, it's next to Simonites Butchers on that road behind West Street facing City Hall.

There's also BIRDS YARD in Chapel Walk, which stocks lots of local crafts, fashion and other products from numerous local small businesses.

This famous Sheffield Shop sells Chinese and Japanese cutlery supplied by David Mellor Design under the pretext it's made here and they know its foreign .

 

They sell a wide variety of Sheffield stuff including kitchen knives that are wholly made in Sheffield like the A. Wright & Son range which uses old stock of forged steel, which is no longer made here. Apparently it makes a better quality of knife, but no manufacturer is making it any more and there's a limited supply left.

Nobody can afford to stock that much steel, probably they have been made abroad like Viners and such. Ask them just where it's made.

It's old stock, left over from the past that was forged in Sheffield. I already asked.

Steel stock was bought on strength of orders received for knife or blade blanks, no firm bought stock on the premise that they may get orders the profit margin was very small to lash out on buying in bulk. Just think how long your manufacturer has been producing knives out of old steel stock and work out just how much steel would be needed, he would have to replenish stock, nobody has an inexhaustible supply of raw material.
