Vintage Golden Age Rustless Scissors By Richards

Richards of Sheffield: In 1930, the Richartz brothers, who hailed from Solingen (Germany), opened what would be the largest cutlery factory in Sheffield.

The Imperial Knife Company in America bought them out in 1977, but the plant closed about ten years later. more info at https://adirondackgirlatheart.com/cool-collectible-vintage-scissors/ http://progress-is-fine.blogspot.com/2017/12/history-in-scissors-british.html https://www.hawleysheffieldknives.com/n-fulldetails.php?val=rI&kel=1047
