The rise of Sheffield as a center for knife-making was fueled by the city’s proximity to high-quality raw materials, including locally sourced steel and abundant water power from its rivers. By the 18th century, the city's knife-making expertise had reached new heights, and by the 19th century, it was home to some of the most prestigious cutlery manufacturers. The hallmark of Sheffield knives was their superior steel, advanced production techniques, and meticulous craftsmanship, which made them highly sought after.
