Crafted in proud remembrance and deep respect for the men and women of previous generations, this limited edition Cheese and Butter Knife Set has been created to commemorate the 80th anniversary of VE Day — a day that holds profound significance for us at The Sheffield Cutlery Shop.

Our story began after World Ware II, our founder, Richard Idell laid the foundations for a company built on integrity, quality, and tradition.

Four generations later, we honour his legacy and the sacrifices of his generation with this special edition set…(more about our story tomorrow!)

Each piece is proudly made in Sheffield and features:
• A stainless steel cheese knife and butter knife, forged and hand-finished in our workshop
• Laser-engraved blades with the official VE Day 80 emblem
• Handles in a smooth ivory tone, detailed with a subtle red, white, and blue stripe as a nod to the Union Flag
• Crowned logo, symbolising our heritage and British pride

This set is offered at £30.00 and will be available for a limited time only, created to celebrate our enduring legacy and the courage of the generation that made it all possible.

Whether you’re a collector, a proud patriot, or simply someone who values meaning in what you use and gift, this set is more than cutlery — it’s history, remembrance, and craftsmanship in your hands.

Limited edition. Proudly British. Made to remember.

An heirloom of unmatched elegance.

This exquisite set of 12 pairs of Knives and Forks is a masterclass in Sheffield craftsmanship — featuring Sterling Silver heads, carved Mother of Pearl handles, and hand-engraved blades of the highest quality.

Crafted by the renowned James Dixon & Sons and assayed in Sheffield in 1909, each piece bears the Lion Passant, the Crown, and the date letter ‘r’ — unmistakable marks of quality. The attention to detail is breathtaking: from the intricate ferrules to the shimmering hues of the Mother of Pearl.

This set is in pristine condition — a flawless example of the beauty and precision our city is known for.

As a Bank Holiday treat, we’re offering 10% off.
Just send us a DM to enquire and we’ll take care of the rest.

Crafted in history. Cherished forever.
