Jonathan Hall's name appears several times in the Sheffield directories. He is listed at China (Cheney) Square in 1787 using the trade mark 'GRATIAN'. In the late 1820's he was listed at Union Lane. By 1833 the business was trading as John & William Hall. This wedge blade dates circa 1790 - 1810, measures 6/8 at its widest point and is restored in what is believed to be its original glazed type finish. Period collect style scales are made in honey horn with brass domed collars and a lead wedge. Some before pictures with home made wood scales and in work pictures are posted.
