Turquoise serpentine jack ?!?

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.

Turquoise serpentine jack ?!?

Post by PaFolders87 »

This is an oddity i picked up recently made with real chipped turquoise. Was wondering if anyone knew anything about this knife. It was well done, but I don’t believe from the factory. Thoughts and information welcome.

Wow I agree very nice Queen! I like the turquoise handles but I agree probably not factory. They sure are pretty though. Thank you for sharing it here. ::tu::

So it was done by queens? I was looking through their handles that year and couldn’t find it on any model. That’s def the same thing there tho.

I guess it was, their historical catalogs skip '79 and it may have been a one and done, they collaborate with several custom designers and it could be one of them but I would think it would be signed in some way. ::shrug:: ps ::welcome:: to AAPK.
