TURTON

Sheffield's scissors legacy lives on

With the Turton, Ernest Wright created one of the most popular kitchen scissors models in the United Kingdom. Frank Turton was another scissors manufacturer in Sheffield who produced high quality scissors for much of the 20th century. Ernest Wright and Frank Turton were not only fellow craftsmen, but also friends and golf buddies. After the closure of Frank Turton Scissors Ltd., Ernest Wright was entrusted with the continuation of the Turton kitchen scissors. Ernest Wright thus ultimately preserves the city's scissor design heritage.

The advantages of drop forged stainless steel

Drop forging is a forging process in which heated metal is pressed into a mold (die). This results in improved material structure and strength compared to cast or cut shears. Drop forged hygienic stainless steel is a high quality, rust-proof stainless steel that has been specifically developed for hygienic applications. It is characterized by a smooth surface that is easy to clean and minimizes bacterial growth.

Care instructions when using the Turton

After use, wipe the Turton clean and dry and store it away from moisture, preferably in dry fabric or leather. The Turton scissors can be washed by hand without any problem. Occasionally you can put a drop of oil (household or machine oil) in the screw area. After that, the scissors should be moved several times to distribute the oil well. The screw of the scissors should not be adjusted so that the scissors do not fall apart.

A classic, reinterpreted

The Turton scissors are a true all-rounder. They can effortlessly handle a wide range of cutting tasks. Whether for chopping herbs, cutting poultry or opening nuts - the Turton is always there. Its classic design is complemented by modern elements such as the serrated blades and the integrated bottle opener. And the best thing: the Turton is also available for left-handers.
