    Another pair of British made scissors which are going straight into my sewing room. The difference you notice from using these scissors to the cheaper orange handled ones is amazing. They cut every time, no snipping away to achieve the same result. I bought these for paper use, saving my others for fabric

Meet the Maker: William Whiteley & Sons

William Whiteley & Sons has crafted the world's finest scissors and shears in Sheffield since 1760 - making them the oldest scissorsmiths in the western world and the UK's last remaining industrial scissor maker. Founded by William Whiteley and passed through eleven generations of direct family descent, this remarkable heritage spans over 260 years of unbroken excellence. Every pair is still hand-forged using traditional techniques lovingly handed down from master to apprentice, hot-forged from the finest Sheffield steel and individually tested. The company produces over 250 different types for cutting virtually every material - from delicate embroidery silks to industrial Kevlar. Their scissors won exhibition medals in London (1851, 1862) and Paris (1855), supplied the Royal Family and Savile Row tailors, and incorporate the historic Wilkinson trademark (Thomas Wilkinson & Sons, established 1875). Sheffield's legendary reputation for steel and cutting implements lives on in every William Whiteley creation - precision tools trusted by professionals worldwide and built to last generations.
