Founded in 1850 by Chester Hunter in East Norwalk, Ohio. This was the first household cutlery manufacturer west of New England. In 1885, the name became the Clyde Cutlery Company, Clyde, Ohio. In October 1892, Robert B. Jones purchased an interest in the plant, and in January 1893, became connected with the management. The firm was a partnership until 1904 when it was incorporated. R.B. Jones was president, L.M. Persing vice president, D.C. Richmond secretary, and Taylor Fuller treasurer. The Clyde plant was on a siding of the New York Central Railroad, with access to the Wheeling and Lake Erie, and the Big Four Railroads. They are still in business.
