Coming Home

You will almost certainly have heard by now that on the 1st April, 2003, all of our production, warehousing and despatch functions were consolidated within one location - our factory and head-office premises in Edinburgh.

Apart from a few days of absolute chaos where stock and staff were to be found at various locations between London and Edinburgh (and elsewhere), the move went extremely well. There was little interruption to our normal despatch service and we trust that you, our customers experienced no problems with the way we dealt with and despatched your orders.

Our warm thanks to all our customers and friends who contacted us with good wishes regarding our relocation. Your kind thoughts were truly appreciated.

If you have any queries about our move, please do not hesitate to contact Roger Barlee, David Lanning or William McLean on sales@hewit.com for more information.

Made from reclaimed mechanical hacksaw blades, they are hand-ground to a perfect edge for paring and lifting. The lifting knives are ideal for getting into those awkward places and for lifting cloth, leather and paper from boards, spines, etc.

Paring Machines

We regrettably advise, that the Brockman Paring Machine has been discontinued by the manufacturer. A newly designed version is currently under development and we hope to be able to bring you news about this new model by July/August 2003. Spare blades for the Brockman Paring Machine are still available.
