We proudly continue our manufacturing tradition from our base in Sheffield, England where today Robert Sorby is one of the city’s oldest manufactures.
The very first record of the Soresby/Sorby family dates back to 1624 when Robert Soresby became the first Master Cutler of Sheffield.
Robert Sorby and Sons was first registered in Union Street, Sheffield in 1828 as a manufacturer of edge tools, saws, scythes and hay knives.
Please see the History section for more information.
We recommend you watch the detailed videos on our YouTube channel.

You can also find detailed videos on our YouTube channel.
