The online community of knife collectors, A Knife Family Forged in Steel
Knives have been made at the factory of Queen Cutlery Company of Titusville Pennsylvania for over 100 years. It is arguably the oldest and last American Cutlery that truly continues to produce knives in the same way as they were produced there when the factory opened in 1902. The factory’s first tenant was the Schatt & Morgan Cutlery Company: Queen Cutlery Company displaced Schatt & Morgan there in 1933. Queen City Cutlery Company first began to produce knives in 1918 around the end of the First World War, incorporated in 1922, and shortened their name to “Queen Cutlery Company” in January of 1946. Purchased by Daniels Family Cutlery Corporation on September 18, 2012

Yep, unless things have changed in the last few years (always a possibility) Tony Watkins mentioned on episode of Knives Live that the Titusville Cutlery was his family's TM. I think he mentioned his grandfather established the TM.
Did some more searching and while they are made by Queen, it's not a Queen knife:
"Titusville Cutlery: Family trademark owned by the family of Tony Watkins of SMKW. The knives are USA made by Queen."
From Tobias' site.

Dave,
I did not realize they were made through Queen!
Steve,
I think officially you had it right at Daniels Family Cutlery. I am however inclined to think Damn Fine Cutlery fits just as well and I LIKE IT!!
BINGO!
I believe we have a winner on aisle 5!
I was mulling over a few other three word phrases for that DFC acronym myself. Most of which would not be appropriate for a family forum and definitely not pertinent to Queen Cutlery. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go scrub my mind with hot soapy water. Cheers!
Oh! I like "Damn Fine Cutlery!" I think you might be on to something with that one!
Ron;
Yes, either that or "Damn Fine Cutlery".
Steve,
It sounds like you may have read the introductory paragraph at the top of the page? Indeed - "DFC" - Daniels' Family Cutlery would certainly seem like the likely deduction regarding its meaning. That assumption would be bolstered by the last sentence in that intro: "Purchased by Daniels Family Cutlery Corporation on September 18, 2012"
That would be my guess.
I just had a revelation..."Daniels Family Cutlery" ???? Could that be it?
