Greetings - hope you are all well. The new ox horn handled knives are going to be made with the lambsfoot and sheepsfoot blades. It's only one piece of horn not a regular supply and so when they are gone they are gone and it will be probably six months or so before another similar chunk arrives. Some of Trevor Ablett's knifes are out of stock but a new supply will arrive in about three weeks but that will be it until well into the new year. http://www.sheffield-gb.com

On the euro-stars you carry your luggage with you and can watch your prized possessions being tossed into a bin. regards Malcolm

Even in checked luggage?

I think customs has alot to do with the length of time on international shipping.  No matter the shipping method, they can hold up about anything

The length of time it took the knives to arrive sent airmail is terrible. Thank you for your patience. The build up to Christmas will be even worse. We were in Paris last weekend looking at some of the knives on offer in the flea markets but they were quite impossible to buy because of the dire warnings on the euro-star of taking knives back even in your luggage. regards malcolm

Hello I think you had the best bits of the Ox. It's very difficult to take a picture of them because the colour is in layers in the horn. Many thanks for your order. regards Malcolm

Malcom,

The twin beauties came home but it was so dark the pics dont do them justice. I will put this one up but I will take more on a better evening.  Thank you...these are exceptional.  The oxhorn is so translucent it gives the knife a depth and dimension you do not see in buffalo horn

Hi Joseph. Based on your description, I don't think that you have a Sheffield knife. The Northfield name has appeared a few times over the years but these knives were originally associated with Northfield CT and most recently Great Eastern Cutlery. Please post a photo and we should be able to provide further information.
