'Cutlers to their majesties' is Victoria and Albert (the old queen never removing Albert's name from their reign), whilst 'Cutlers to His Majesty' usually meant King Edward VII or more unusually King George V.

Edward VII (Albert Edward; 9 November 1841 – 6 May 1910

"A Peerage for Trade"

The book traces the history of the Royal Warrant from medieval times to the present day. This fascinating story is generously illustrated with archive material, much never seen before
Sorry Carlos, I can not find a copy of the book that we could read online
