Triumph Needle

Kretzer Scissors

Fine quality forged cutting tools from a family business established in 1923 — stocked and supported in the UK & Ireland by Triumph Needle.

The Kretzer story

A century of cutting precision

Established in 1923, the family-run business soon earned a reputation for fine quality traditional forged cutting tools. As customers and cutting requirements evolved, so did the range — modern production techniques with the same attention to detail.

Today Kretzer produces over 1.2 million pairs a year. As they celebrate their centenary, Triumph Needle is proud to have been part of that journey for over 40 years, officially representing the brand across the UK and Ireland.
