    The company was founded in the 1930s by two German brothers whose name was actually Richartz. They came from Solingen (Germany's equivalent to Sheffield for cutlery manufacture) and the brothers Paul and Stefan changed the firm's name to Richards just before the Second World War. Their original factory was badly damaged in the war and in 1946 they moved to a large new building where they made a wide range of mass-produced cutlery, penknives, scissors etc., and the brothers ammassed a considerable fortune. Richards was bought out in 1977 by the Imperial Knife Company of the U.S.A. and closed a few years later.
