Our customers have come to recognise Barton Smith as a place where they will always be met with a smile and "how can we help?" Our customers are important to us and making sure they are happy with their purchase is essential.
Delivering on these three elements have ensured Barton Smith existence for two centuries and, we believe, will ensure we are still here in years to come.
The shop started in 1798 and has evolved to the changes in the environment which has seen it from sharping razor baldes and knives to sports specialists.
In 1998, the current premises was opened after extensive buidling works at the site.
In 1912, one of the lifeboats on the Titantic was cut free using a knive which was sharpened in Barton Smith.
