Welcome to our Website
This site has been developed to enable us to cater for your individual needs and requirements. If you have any suggestions into how we can achieve this, or if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us
Being a small independent company we are able to offer a high level of service and personal attention.
Mastercut acquire Barker & England
BARKER & ENGLAND IS NOW WHOLEY OWNED BY MASTERCUT CUTTING SYSTEMS LTD, WHO INCORPORATED THE BARKER & ENGLAND BUSINESS WITHIN THEIR ORGANISATION IN OCTOBER 2006. TOGETHER BOTH COMPANIES CAN NOW OFFER A MORE COMPREHENSIVE SERVICE TO EXISITING AND NEW CLIENTS.
Barker & England have been established for over 100 years and are manufacturers of all types of Machine Knives.
Whilst the company can manufacture and supply knives for all the standard range of machines, they also specialise in the manufacture of specialist knives to a customers own design, and would be able to make either large or small quantities using the wealth of experience gained over many years.
Because of the specialist nature of the manufacturing programme it is difficult to illustrate all the knives we produce and therefore we ask customers to forward details of what they require.
The company also offer a comprehensive regrind service.
CNC Machine Installed

At Chesterfield we have installed a new CNC machine 'HAAS VF10 Machining Centre', ensuring we have the up-to-date technology enabling us to be able to cater better for your requirements.
CNC Machining (Computer Numerical Control) has radically changed the manufacturing industry; enabling curves to be cut as easily as straight lines, and complex 3D structures are relatively easy to produce.
With the increased automation of manufacturing processes with CNC machining, considerable improvements in consistency and quality have been achieved.
CNC automation reduces the frequency of errors and provides CNC operators with more time to carry out quality checks. It also allows for more flexibility in the manufacturing process and reduces make-ready times.
We've Extended our Premises
On the 1st November 2008 Mastercut aquired another 5,000 sq. ft. Manufacturing, Wharehouse and Office space in Clay Cross to compliment the existing, cramped 4,500 sq. ft. facility. The extra floor space will be used for additional wharehousing and a special products machine cell and Heat Treatment capacity
