1972 #44 Hunter

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.

This was my Dad’s knife. I was always fascinated by it. He was in the grocery business early in his career and it was what he used to trim produce. It was always with him.

Nice and even nicer that it belonged to Dad. Looks to still be in great shape

That's real nice. A good quality knife. Glad you were able to hold on to it. I'm sure your dad would be happy. ::nod::

Great old knife, especially since it was your dad's! That looks like the '52-'55 tang stamp.
