Trouble is, it is *so* perfect, he keeps it 'for best'. I also bought new dressmaking scissors made by Kutrite - one of only two remaining Sheffield scissor makers. We both get an enormous amount of pleasure and satisfaction from owning and using something so beautifully made and fit for purpose - and still being made just up the A53 :-)Wandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14674861197059323883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-84500943069610611862013-09-03T21:44:05.414+01:002013-09-03T21:44:05.414+01:00That sounds brilliant, Diane.

I have a penchant for rummaging through old cutlery when I see it in charity shops and picking out older pieces marked Sheffield, and also have a few silver plate pieces made here. I have a nerdy love of checking out the makers marks! There is a great cutlery stall on Chesterfiled market, by the way, you'd love it. <br />I do agree it's a little alarming when one's own memories become "history" but it happens to us all, in time! xxxxCurtisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362184504889147455noreply@blogger.com
