Smithfield 'Chef' Cooks Knife
Samuel Staniforth
Where it comes from
- UK company
Registered at Companies House as Samuel Staniforth Limited, number 04006548. Checked 2026-08-20.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
- UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
- Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
What the maker states
Taken from the maker's own page. Anything they don't state is absent here rather than guessed, which is why these lists are shorter than you might expect.
