Queen Cutlery History
Re: Queen Cutlery History
At queencutleryhistory.com Queen Cutlery’s Heavy Duty Jacks are in our Spotlight this month. These sturdy folding knives have their roots in the Queen City era (before World War II) and are anchored by the ubiquitous # 10 pattern. Sharing the same frame as the # 10 are the # 18 which has been referred to as both a “Heavy Duty Jack” and a “Spear Point Special”, as well as the # 40 “Heavy Duty Screwdriver”.

Produced only from 1897 to 1902, before S&M moved to Titusville, many of these knives formed the inspiration for the Schatt & Morgan knives of recent years.

Every one of the Black Box Winchester knives I've owned were extremely well built, solid knives with super strong snap.

Re: Queen Cutlery History
Id like to thank you David queen city cutlery history. I read the article on Esemco stainless. Really interesting stuff. I posted a link to the article in the Mystery Knife Game thread here on the forum. My little knife would have forever remained a mystery to me if it weren't for your work. 



That's my Etsy store where I sell old knives and sometimes handmade knife accessories to support my knife habbit. Thanks for looking my friend.

Re: Queen Cutlery History
Here's a little piece of Queen history from 1946 when Queen was still headquartered in New York.
I must admit, I've only ever used a paring knife for fruits and vegetables...never for a "pet"

Re: Queen Cutlery History
Q, That date was 9 months before I was born.
That's an interesting old advertisement, that must indicate that I too am old.
How about the price? $12 per dozen, love to have a dozen of those little Queens at that price!
