Henry Sears and Son 1865 Barlow

Alright y'all...
New here first post. I've come across a knife that has me absolutely baffled. Blade says Henry Sears and Son 1865 and it says Queen on the side.
I've searched the forums here and there doesn't seem to be a lot of info regarding them.
If anyone has info on history I'd love to know it. I'm also wondering as to it's value

Henry Sears and Son 1865 was a trademark used by FOK (Farwell, Ozmun and Kirk) of Minneapolis, MN.
Many of their butcher knives were stamped or etched "Queen", as well as some of the shields on their folders.
I suspect it had nothing to do with Queen Cutlery.

Thank you! I hadn't found that portion on it being trademarked by FOK.

Correct - they used QUEEN as one of their trademarks, nothing to do with Queen Cutlery. In fact I think that there was a trademark dispute between Queen and H Sears.

To the original poster - please post pics if you can, sounds like a very interesting knife. You don't see many H Sears knives marked with Queen.
