My first Queen.....

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.

My first Queen.....

Post by Messerschmitt »

After years of owning, using, and collecting German made pocket knives I ran across a deal (I think) on a Queen #64 with D2 blades, so I bought it new for $25 just to try it....

So for I'm very impressed. This knife is assembled like old school German and American knives, and seems to hold an edge very well. It weighs more than most knives it's size and feels more solid as well.

I can't believe that I haven't had one of these before, but it looks like I may have more in the future.

Queen is a nice brand, been around a long time. They have had high quality since the beginning, there are not many other brands that can say that.

Welcome to AAPK. Glad to have you aboard.

Is the Queen #64 like the Canal Street Cannitler (canoe/whittler)? Would you happen to have some pictures you'd be willing to show us?
