Sampson Custom Knife Info?

Post by sextonknifeworks »

Does anyone have any info regarding this Sampson Custom knife below. I was told that this guy used to work for Queen and started to make knives on his own. I hope this is true but it may not be. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Fred Sampson was Queen's master cutler. That looks like a Queen made folding hunter.
