Here's some information I found about the Queen Cutlery show this summer. It's the same weekend as the The Great Eastern Cutlery Rendezvous. Not a very good time to offer factory tours though IMO. Thursday July 28th from 10am til 2pm.
Sounds like a good road trip.

Re: Queen Collectors 7th Biennial Show
My pleasure Dave. I know I can't make it on Thursday but I'm going to send them an e-mail and see if there's anything going on Saturday. I know you can't tour the factory any other time than open house.
It's about 3 1/2 hour drive for me and I plan on making the trip.

Re: Queen Collectors 7th Biennial Show
Just want to add this info...
After the Cookout on Friday night July 29, They have a small Auction of special knifes. Perhaps 6 to 12 very special ones. The money goes to the next years pic knick for the employed there. Here is one I got the last time. 1 of 1

Re: Queen Collectors 7th Biennial Show
Yes I did and learned a lot.
The auction was after the tour and at the end of the cook out Friday night.
You can also buy (any day) a club knife when your there too. As you see I was there both 2007 and 2009.

Re: Queen Collectors 7th Biennial Show
You're welcome John. I sent an email to Queen today asking about tours of the factory this summer.

Re: Queen Collectors 7th Biennial Show
Mike,
I don't know if you have seen this old thread.

No tours on Saturday as the factory is closed, but it's worth the trip at least once in a lifetime.

If it's meant for me to have it, it'll still be there.

Re: Queen Collectors 7th Biennial Show
A shame they won't open up on Saturday when all the people are around for the GEC show and the Queen meet.
