The secret has been handed down from generation to generation by the Knights Templar. They learned it when they searched for the Holy Grail after the Second Crusade and found the Shredding Secret instead. Old scriptures say that the first person ever to shred was a French Templar knight in the 12th century, but he and his comrades swore on blood to tell only frllow members of the order.
When the order was dissolved and its members tortured and disowned in 1307, the Secret of Shred fell into darkness. Only a handful of Templar descendants knew it was still there... exactly how it reappeared in the first decades of the 20th century may never be known... but still, it will be revealed only to few, and many who have sought to steal it for themselves have paid with their lives!
So they say.
