About IXL Wostenholm:

There have been Cutlers (Knifemakers) in Sheffield since before the fifteenth century and the City is famous for its knives. When Sheffield is mentioned anywhere in the world the automatic reaction is still 'Steel and 'Cutlery'.

Revered all over the World as the pinnacle of excellence in knife manufacture, George Wostenholm of Washington Works in Sheffield employed 800 people at one time and was arguably England's greatest Cutlery Manufacturer.

Modern hand-made replications of the 19th century Bowies and Pocketknives that still bear the original Wostenholm trademarks granted by the Cutlers Company of Hallamshire in 1787.

Along with Joseph Rodgers, George Wostenholm is possibly the most famous name in Cutlery. These two, once great rival companies have sat alongside each other in The Egginton Group of Companies of Sheffield since 1986.
