The History of The Cutlers Company in Sheffield
I missed a set of these books a few years ago but managed to get this set. Now to find enough time to read them.
I measure my collection by the ton.

I'd be happy just to page through them Iron Hoarder.
Looks like very interesting stuff.
Can't make out the title of the small book.

Re: The History of The Cutlers Company in Sheffield
What was "The Company of Cutlers" ? Was it a professional association where cutlers would meet, drink beer and socialize ? I have not seen a knife marked with this name so i think it was not a manufacturer of knives.
