Queen #31 Half Congress

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.

Just added this one to my collection.
A Queen #31 Half Congress.
Winterbottom bone with the "Q" STEEL tang stamp which dates it to 1958-60.

Thats in excellent shape considering its age, must of been well cared for. I was born in '58 and apparently not as well cared for as your knife, I'm a little
worn down around the edges. :D Real nice knife Bruno, around 4" closed?

That's nice. I love a sheep's foot as the primary blade. I carried a congress myself today, albeit a different brand.
