Simmons Knife & Saw, a trusted manufacturer of industrial cutting solutions, is proud to celebrate our 80th anniversary in 2026. Since the company’s founding in 1946, our team has built a reputation for reliable, consistent quality and a deep understanding of the evolving needs of end users across various industries.
Simmons originally found success in the B2C space, manufacturing and selling Scallop blades as consumer cutlery in a production space with less than 5,000 square feet. Now, eight decades later, Simmons remains close to its roots by continuing to manufacture our trademark Scallop blades in a production space that exceeds 50,000 square feet. We’ve also continued to create new products to expand into other industries in the B2B space. Currently, Simmons has developed more than 20 different cutting edges used in thousands of unique blade designs for applications across the foam, bread, meat, poultry, seafood, and produce sectors, among several others.
Throughout our innovative efforts to create new products as well as navigate changing technologies and shifting market demands, Simmons has remained focused on delivering dependable performance and superior customer service.
“Reaching this milestone is a testament to four generations of hard work, perseverance, and commitment. But no company achieves longevity like this on its own,” said Colin Murphy, President & Owner of Simmons. “Our success is inseparable from the dedication of our employees, the trust of our customers, and the support of our vendors and partners across many industries.”
As part of our anniversary celebration, Simmons plans to recognize employees whose contributions have helped shape the company’s success. We also plan to commemorate the milestone with internal events and expanded marketing initiatives throughout the year. You can view photos from these events below.
