Brand History & Trademark Analysis

Spear & Jackson was founded in 1760 in Sheffield by Thomas Spear, a saw and edge-tool maker. The company won its first Great Exhibition award in 1851 and subsequently held numerous Royal Warrants. Spear & Jackson supplied saws and tools to the British military during both World Wars. The company changed ownership several times before being acquired by Bully Tools in the United States, which distributes the Spear & Jackson brand globally while the Sheffield heritage is maintained in marketing.
