Wilkinson developed and manufactured the Wilkinson TMC, a luxury touring motorcycle between 19, when production was stopped by World War I.
These were two-cylinder machines with Belgian engines made by Antoine, which were marketed by a garage in Chelsea, London – one of the first motorcycle dealerships in the UK. Wilkinson Sword produced some of the earliest motorcycles in 1903. In 2014, the company further moved most of its production to Czech Republic. In 2000, the company closed its razor plant in the UK and consolidated production in Germany. Wilkinson Sword has manufactured its products in three UK locations over the years: in London ( Chelsea and Acton), Cramlington in Northumberland, and Bridgend in Wales, where it made gardening tools. Gardening equipment is still made under the Wilkinson Sword name by E.P. The company was founded as a manufacturer of guns made in Shotley Bridge in County Durham, by Henry Nock in London in 1772.īesides guns, the company has also produced swords, bayonets and products such as typewriters, garden shears, scissors and motorcycles. Wilkinson Sword is a formerly British brand for razors and other personal care products sold in Europe, owned by the US company Edgewell Personal Care.
