New kitchen knife
I have just received a new kitchen/paring knife from Staniforths. It is just perfection. It's a lovely little knife, feels superb in the hand and is beautiful to look at. (We chose the cherry walnut colour from the dymond wood range). It is going to be a joy to use. Sheffield steel is unbeatable value and the quality is second to none.
The service from Staniforth has been first class. They were so helpful when I asked about sharpening our reliable and trusty bread knife that we'd bought from them many moons ago.
Good support from customers service

The product is superb. The service was efficient in terms of web site and I got a quick response when I asked about delivery dates which was great.
But the product is the thing, just beautiful and super practical.

Exquisite Craftsmanship
I promptly received my made-to-order set of knives—including filleting, slicing, tourné, tomato, soft cheese knives, and a sharpener—and found the pricing fair and well worth it. I've been using them since they arrived and am thoroughly impressed by both their functionality and craftsmanship. I truly hope they’ll last a lifetime without any issues.
Many thanks to the team for their expert workmanship—I'm sincerely grateful.
Brilliant service
I had an absolutely brilliant experience buying knives from Samuel Staniforth. I purchased a 4-piece set and additional bread knife. After submitting my order, customer service contacted me to enquire if I would like the bread knife to be made with the same handles as the set so that they all matched. The knives were all made to a high quality and shipped promptly - I would highly recommend to anyone in the market for handmade UK knives!
Great Service!
I recently ordered a set of pink knives from Samuel Staniforth.
Firstly, their delivery is rapid! I ordered the Friday night and got them on the Saturday!
I did have a little issue with my order and
they needed to send me another package.
I emailed on a Saturday and was emailed straight back saying they would sort everything on the Monday. And here I am on Tuesday morning having received the package and everything is perfect!
Customer service is incredible, the knives are stunning. I would highly recommend buying from these guys👌
