Queen City #10
Queen City #10
Latest find in the $10 bargain bin. Yes, I cleaned and polished it. I like my knives (and my trucks) shiny. Black composition (plastic) handles. Based on the tang stamp, it was made sometime between 1922 - 1945. Pocket ready.

Hi hardman.
I've got one of those, I think. Mine isn't stamped. It's 3 3/4".
How do you know what model number it is?
Nice looking knife, yours.

Re: Queen City #10
We know the model number by pattern, size and blade type.
The Queen Model #10 is a swelled end jack, 3 11/16" in size with a clip main and a pen secondary.
Queen also made their #18 pattern which is the same knife with a spear main.
Most of these knives were not stamped with a model number except for the years 1961-71 when Queen etched Queen Steel #10 on the main blade.
During these years, Queen did not stamp the tangs.

Good one, Dimitri.
Mine is a very strong, well built knife. No doubt the other two are also.
