Life on the edge
Rock and flint knives may have a two and half million year history but it’s only been recently that advances in manufacturing techniques have led to the rapid evolution in metal knife blades. Richardson Sheffield is proud to have been at the forefront of many of these revolutions.
Since 1839 Richardson Sheffield has established itself as a leader; not only in terms of design and technological innovation, but also for their uncompromising quality.
There are many firsts associated with this much loved British brand including; creating the first wooden knife blocks in the 1960’s, a development that has had an impact on almost every home since. This was followed by the launch of the ‘never needs sharpening’ Laser™ technology in 1979 and the introduction of ‘Gripi’ a few years ago, with the first ever soft touch knife block to complement perfectly the soft touch knives.
It’s a rich heritage that boasts unparalleled expertise and unsurpassed specialist knowledge. Yet Richardson Sheffield continues to look to the future as the latest, premium One70 knife range demonstrates.
In touch with today’s style trends and technological developments, Richardson Sheffield deliver kitchen knives to suit every home; from starter sets to highly sought after, professional brands - all with unconditional guarantees. By choosing Richardson Sheffield, you are choosing to invest in assured excellence.
Knives made easy....
At Richardson Sheffield knives are our passion. With 170 years experience, we’re equipped to help you select the right knives based on their design and manufacturing processes.
Knife Construction Knife Manufacturing
There are three basic blade types:
Edge Ground: The blade is straight sided with
an edge that is ground directly onto it. The Laser
ranges from Richardson Sheffield have edge ground
blades with their unique ‘never needs sharpening’
blade technology.
Hollow Ground: The blade has a concave, bevelled
edge on either side that allows for a finer cut.
Taper Ground: The blade decreases in size from
the handle to the tip and from the spine to the edge
of the blade. This type of blade is more stable due
to its rigid structure and is made to withstand more
use, cutting cleanly when slicing or chopping.
Richardson Sheffield use the superior taper ground
blades for all of their other knife ranges – Gripi,
forme, Fusion, Sabatier Trompette, V Sabatier and
One70.
Materials
Most knife blades are made from high quality
Martensitic stainless steel which contains a higher
percentage of carbon in the alloy compound. The
carbon increases hardness allowing the blade to
sustain the many tasks undertaken in the kitchen.
Laser Classic, Laser Soft Touch, Gripi, forme, Fusion
and Sabatier Trompette are the Richardson Sheffield
ranges with blades crafted from Martensitic
stainless steel. For a truly premium knife, blades
are manufactured from the top quality Chrome
Molybdenum Vanadium high carbon stainless steel.
These blades are significantly harder and designed
to stay much sharper. V Sabatier and One70 are the
luxury knife ranges from Richardson Sheffield with
these superior blades.
Strength
The hardness of a blade can be measured and
given a Rockwell Value; this measures the material’s
resistance to indentation under controlled
conditions. The higher the Rockwell number, the
harder the material; the British standard is 52RC
or 48RC for a serrated edge bade. Our new One70
knives measure 55+2RC.
Blade
The blade usually tapers from the heel to the tip, ending in a point
and consists of a spine on top and a sharp cutting edge below.
The bolster connects the blade to the handle. This raised section
creates a useful finger guard and provides an essential centre
of balance and strength to the knife.
Handle
All our handles are designed for safety, ease of use and comfort.
They are also made to be long lasting, whether riveted or
permanently bonded.
The tang is the part of the blade that continues into the handle.
Full tang knives provide greater balance and make the knife easier
to rock when chopping.

There are six main knife types.
For the more dedicated enthusiast we also offer a series
of knives and accessories specifically designed for more
specialist tasks.
Paring KnifeHas a 3-4” blade and is used for peeling fruit and vegetables, as well as top and tailing them
15cm Cook’s KnifeA very versatile knife with a wide tapering blade enabling the cook to rock the knife when slicing and dicing, while the heel protects the knuckles
Carving KnifeHas an 8-14” blade which can have serrated or non-serrated edges, for carving and slicing meats, larger fruit, boneless roasts and poultry
All Purpose KnifeA 5” blade that cuts, slices and trims meats, vegetables and sandwiches
20cm Cook’s KnifeA bigger version of the 15cm Cook’s Knife, still just as versatile with the wide tapering blade making it perfect for rocking the knife when preparing food, with the heel designed to protect the knuckles
Bread KnifeHas a rigid 8-9” blade with serrations to break into the crust and slice without tearing the bread

Laser with an up-to-the-minute make over
If you’re looking for all the performance of a tried and
trusted Laser knife in a more contemporary style, then
look no further than Laser Soft Touch.
It’s certainly a tale of two halves that perfectly
complement each other. Firstly, the blade incorporates
premium quality materials and manufacturing
techniques that ensure the knives are designed to stay
sharper for longer. This contrasts with the beautifully
tactile and curvaceous soft touch black handles that
are designed to mould into your hand while providing
superior comfort and grip.
It’s a transformation that’s refreshingly simple and
exquisitely elegant.

Fusing the best elements of tradition and technology
The Fusion range is all about different materials fusing together to create the perfect knife and block.
By using the finest skills and latest technology, Richardson Sheffield has developed a blade edge that regenerates itself as it’s
used. The coated plain edge of the Martensitic stainless steel blade has been blasted with another metal, tungsten carbide,
which independent tests have shown can last at least 11,000 times longer than any traditional plain edged blade.
The knife block is an eye catching fusion of wood and acrylic with a simple magnetic mechanism that allows the knives to float
suspended in air; making the most of their magnificent contours.
