The Master Cutler is the head of the Company of Cutlers in Hallamshire established in 1624. Their role is to act as an ambassador of industry in Sheffield, England. The Master Cutler is elected by the freemen of the company on the first Monday of September of each year and the position taken in the first Tuesday of October. Despite the title, the Master Cutler does not have to be involved in the cutlery business, or even the steel industry, to be elected. The Installation of the new Master Cutler and Company follows the annual election of the new Company. In the early years of the Company, the Election, Installation, Church Service and celebratory meal (which eventually became the Cutlers’ Feast,) all happened on the same day. Now, only the Installation and Church Service, followed by lunch take place on the same day. The Master Cutler for October 2015 - 2016 is Craig McKay.〔[http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-34451713〕 ==List of Master Cutlers== Master Cutlers have included:〔Plaque in Cutlers' Hall〕〔(The Company of Cutlers in Hallamshire ) Masters Cutler〕 *1624 & 1628 Robert Sorsby *1808 Ebenezer Rhodes *1816 Thomas Asline Ward *1855 Frederick Mappin *1863 Thomas Jessop *1865-66 Sir John Brown *1867-9 Mark Firth *1870 William Bragge *1872 Thomas Vickers *1890 Robert Colver *1897 Alexander Wilson *1908 Douglas Vickers *1910 George Senior *1911 Arthur Balfour *1913 Thomas William Ward *1914-18 William Henry Ellis *1919 Henry Kenyon Stephenson *1935 Samuel Roberts *1936 Sir Frederick Pickworth *1983 William J D Carr *1994 Christopher J Jewitt DL *1998 Douglas and Pamela Liversidge (Master and Mistress Cutler) *1999 H Stuart Johnson *2000 Vernon Smith *2001 Richard Prest *2002 John Bramah *2003 Neil Turner *2004 John Tissiman *2005 Timothy Reed *2006 Alan Reid *2007 Gordon W.
