Simmons Knife & Saw is proud to announce its 75th anniversary as a bandknife and bandsaw blade manufacturer.
Simmons Knife & Saw originally began producing bread slicing blades and consumer cutlery in 1946. By 1953, Simmons’ leadership discerned a market shift toward welded Scallop bands for large-scale bread slicing operations. As a result, the business renewed its focus on the production of welded Scallop bandknife blades as well as new edge types for other emerging applications.
