John Arnold was born around 1790 in the tiny village of Misson, near Bawtry, Yorkshire. In his teens he gained Indenture to the Company of Cutlers, apprenticed to Edward Greaves, razor-maker of Division Street, Sheffield in 1804. Edward Greaves, who had won his Freedom of the Company the same year, was the son of William Greaves who built the Sheaf Works in 1823, and his in-laws included John Blake, Master Cutler who died in office in the cholera outbreak of 1832, and William Blake, who leased out his half-brother's empty house at Upperthorpe to the poet Ebenezer Elliott.
