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

Yes, and I talked to Ryan Daniels at the Pigeon Forge Show last month. He had a proto with him. Best wishes this time around.
Did anyone else read the article in Knife Magazine?
Can anyone help with this ?? http://iknifecollector.com/forum/topics/seeking-info
I have checked out the historical page but the 1989 catalog is not there
Someone, thats would be a concern as well. I would rather see the Daniels family make a smaller line, be even more select only producing their most popular lines and maybe take a stab (pun intended) at a line lesss costly and higher producing for everyday use.
Don,
It seems to me that even if there is a chapter 7, we will someone buy Queen. I just hope it is not Taylor Brand. Although I have nothing against them, I feel Queen has had a special place in the knife world and would love to see it continue in it's factory
I absolutely love Queen//Schatt & Morgan knives. I know I have more of these than all other makers combined. I hope they return!!
I wonder if there is any chance that the Queen/S&M names can be owned, and knives still made by an American company. Even though they wouldn't be made from the same old factory, I hope that the brand is somehow able to continue.
Dan,
Like you I appreciate the efforts the Daniels family made to retain the Queen legacy and keep it going. I also have heard that the company was forced to pursue chapter 7 bankruptcy. My heart breaks for all the effort time and money. It was Ken's dream and this has to be very difficult
What a shame, such sad news.
