Court of the Cutlers' Company: examining the work of their apprentices, London, 1902 (1903). The Worshipful Company of Cutlers is the guild for the trade of knife making and repairing. The Cutlers' Company arms have been in use since 1476. Its current Elephant and Castle crest was granted in 1622. The elephant and castle crest gave rise to a pub of the same name on the site of an old cutlers' inn at Newington, London. This inn in turn gave its name to the area of London known as Elephant and Castle. From Living London, Vol. II, by George R. Sims. [Cassell and Company, Limited, London, Paris, New York & Melbourne, 1903].
