Quality knives.

The knives I ordered were of fantastic quality, I would certainly buy again. The only issue I had, was that the company took a long time to dispatch. I sent a email to chase dispatch date, and I had a very quick response from the Managing Director, who very kindly arranged a quick despatch. I was very impressed. Fantastic knives. Thank you.

High quality, durable, knives at a good price.

I bought a full set of knives more than ten years ago. With the exception of the small serrated knife, which has been worked so hard that it has become a paring knife and was replaced, and the sharpening steel, they all look and perform like the day they were first delivered.

I wanted some made in the UK Kitchen…

I wanted some made in the UK Kitchen Knives.some web searches took me to S.Staniforth .

After browsing their inventory i purchased the "cancelled order" deal pair of chefs`s knife and bread knife.

The knives are hand made and of high quality.The chefs knife gets 5/5 from me and the bread knife gets 3/5. Over all i am very happy with my purchase.

They are made in the UK.they are high quality . I would buy from them again.
