3 older Queens

The Queen Cutlery Company manufactured knives in Titusville Pennsylvania for 96 years. The company opened its only factory there in 1919 and commenced to make some of the best US crafted cutlery you will find. Unfortunately, the Titusville manufacturing plant closed down in 2018.

Those are nice! ::tu:: ::tu:: Queen wrote the book on Winterbottom bone in my opinion. ::nod::
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Great lookin' Queens, especially the two outside ones, love that faded Winterbottom bone! (The jack in the middle is nice, too :) )

That center one is a pattern 18. Looks as if the spear blade has been modified a bit. Nice buy. I just received a nice #10 with nice bone. I'll post a pic as soon as I can.

WOW!
I wish I could find something like that here. Just one of those would be nice.
Connecticut made a buzillion knives back in the day and you would think some decent ones would show up at the two flea mkts. I go to. But NO! All of the knives I see, with rare exception, are trash.

Good for you, David. Really nice knives. ::tu::
