A Brief Queen Cutlery History:

As with all American blade manufacturers, Queen Cutlery has had an extensive and complicated history. The short story is that a handful of Schatt and Morgan employees left S&M and began making knives on their own in Titusville, PA circa 1918. They were very successful and produced knives in their original factory for nearly 100 years, using traditional methods and equipment. During that time, they acquired numerous companies and trademarks, including Robeson and, their former employer, Schatt and Morgan in 1933. Queen was bought by Servotronics in 1969 and then sold to the Daniels Family in 2012. Daniels Family Cutlery kept things running until 2018, when Queen shut it's doors for good.

This is a perfect field knife for any fisherman or small game hunter. The model 85 is commonly reffered to as a Bird and Trout knife; but, at the time, Queen was advertising it as a "Finn" or "Trout Knife". This is the first year that Queen added specific years to the this tang stamp, indicating production in 1991.

It measures in at 6 1/8" with a 3" stainless steel clip blade

Full tang construction capped with brushed aluminum pommel and guard

Christmas Tree scales with brass pins

As great as this knife is, it has obvious signs of use and resharpening. Unfortuneately, it looks like it has seen a grinder, however, the blade is still near full. This is the only Queen knife I've seen with a set of Christmas tree scales on it. The scales look amazing, with a large green and gold flake base and red and black tiger stripes. There are some dings on the guard and pommel, as well as minor scratches on the scales (see pics) but they are free from any chips or cracks. There is zero wobble or play of any kind. Sheath not included.

Queen has always been held in high regard with collectors, noted for their high quality and tradition. Following the closure of their doors in 2018, there has been a renewed interest in collecting all lines of Queen Cutlery; including Robeson, and Schatt and Morgan. Grab your piece of American knife history before they're all gone!

**Note: I am new to knife collecting and selling. All descriptions are to the best of my knowledge and in an attempt to be as honest and forthright as possible in regards to knife condition. I have conducted hours upon hours of research on each individual knife that comes into my possession in an attempt to set a fair price.
