I created the British Leather - Chef Range as a solution to what so many chefs were looking for: the best protection for their knives, that also looked amazing, and supported British manufacturing. This range offers exceptional quality, with everything handmade in our Shropshire workshop.
I looked towards master British tanners Charles F Stead & Co. and J & FJ Baker & Co. to select two distinct and individual leathers, each known for their provenance, durability and traditional character.
Charles F Stead & Co., Leeds have been producing quality leathers since 1890, they are a leading force in the leather industry on matters of environment and sustainability.
Selected for the main part of each piece, this leather uses a tanning process that forms a tight fibre structure, creating secure and cushioned protection for your knives. The rich waxes used give them an added waterproof barrier, with natural texture, colour and a superior feel.
J & JF Baker & Co. Ltd., Devon has been family run since 1862, they are the only remaining oak bark tannery in Britain. Oak bark tannage is a long, gentle process that protects the natural fibres of the hide - the hides are soaked for 12 months in Oak Bark liquor and moved constantly by a mechanism powered by water wheel.
Used for the detailing, this leather comes from locally raised grass fed cows by-products of the Devon beef industry. English oak bark is used in the tanning process, it is then composted.
Each item can be personalised with a name or initials embossed into the leather free of charge - please add in Notes when ordering.
