Im proud to be born and bread in Sheffield minutes walk from all the steel and cutlery works, i grew up in netherthorpe in the early 70's and down broad lane to kelham island area was my playground, always had the smell of hot steel and banging from the hammers in the forges. Glad to see earnest wright still carrying on the tradition of scissor making in the heart of Sheffield ✂️❤
I love this guy, Cliff! I watch all the youtube clips on him I can find with him. God Bless him and Eric. I hope they are still around. Is there a way we can write them an email or a letter?
@@ErnestWrightScissors yes! Poetry in motion! They deserve it. Please let them know they’ve got fans in the USA! Did Jonathan take over as the next master putter? I use some of the videos of Cliff in my college courses when teaching the concept of skilled and deskilled labor. The students love him too
@@remfan170 In the video you see Sam, he is a master putter. Also Jonathan is still at the workshop and in September he is 5 years with us, so we could say a master-utter too🙂
@@ErnestWrightScissorsthat sounds wonderful! I will certainly be in touch. Thank you so much! Keep up the good work! You folks are the best of the past and the future
Buy Locally made poducts where you can. These scissors, work of art and made to last a lifetime!!!. Gonna get me a pair of turtons - jusr one, not a pair :-). Hope the company continues to build- love the Putter video from ages ago. A rant about Uk manufacturing - looking for a DE Razor for ages. Me being in Shefield was looking for a razor after gilette adverts went woke stating men were toxic masculinity or something and wanting to buy something local and a long lasting razor found Edwin Jagger double edge safety razors a Sheffield based company. Originally found and tried an old Gilette razor (US company) an England made Gilette razor made in the 60's the version at twist the bottom to open the top to place the blade. Was my dads old razor with some blades, used them for a couple of years (not the blades rusty), DE blades are no longer made in the UK?? . Long lasting units. Made well. Sheffied made - Ernest Wright - you can't go wrong. Ey up to the one like - did you watch the magnet fishers, digging, river wise half made knives and forks from the river Don. MEGATRON River dare would you walk it?. I'd Love to walk in to that maze butt too scared to.
@@ErnestWrightScissors - I'm glad to hear that - Those are quality, gorgeous scissors, that bring back memories of my late mother, back in Baghdad, Iraq - with her Singer Sewing Machine & a beautiful pair of Ernest Wright Scissors, that she swore by, and would not use anything else but.

Only 300 pairs per month.
We are now making around 1.000 a month. At least that is our goal.
