The Story of Taylor's Eye Witness (2024)

This film is of a lecture given by Nick Duggan on 7 February 2024 at Kelham Island Museum, Sheffield in which he outlines the history and story of the Taylor's Eye Witness brand of Sheffield cutlery. He tracks its progress from the early 19th century from its foundation by John Taylor and then James Veall through its partnership with Walter Tyzack leading to the creation of Needham, Veall & Tyzack and their use of the Taylor's Eye Witness brand amongst others. The story ends with the company's eventual acquisition by Harrison Fisher to become a successful and continuing feature in the city's manufacturing legacy. Taylor's Eye Witness has had a history of innovation in design, branding and marketing with a willingness to embrace new materials and product lines.

The film was developed as part of the Sheffield Treasures Project funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. A website developed by our earlier project giving detail of the huge array of table knife manufacturers in Sheffield over the last 200 years can be found at https://hawleysheffieldknives.com/. During 2022/23 this was further enhanced by the addition of information about spring and pocket knives as part of the latest NLHF project. For further details about makers of Sheffield knives see our website at https://hawleysheffieldknives.com/ which provides essential data for anyone interested in Sheffield's knife heritage.
