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

So how many of us have the camp knife on order?
Jack,
SMKW (Smoky Mountain Knife Works) [smkw.com] sells knives on a TV show - similar to Cutlery Corner (Frost Cutlery). Some cable companies carry both shows, and some do not (DISH does, Comcast/Xfinity does not, and I don't think Verizon FIOS does either. Jan has a link posted here on iKC so you can watch the Friday night show live on your computer, and chat with iKC members at the same time.
What is knives live? TV show?
FOLKS
I hear that Jennie Moore is going to be on Knives Live tonight!
David,
That pic is just awesome. Dont even put the bone in boxes...just fill a box car and be done
David, Love those old time pictures, thanks for posting.
Here is a photo of a rail car shipment of bone to the Winterbottom factory. Samuel Winterbottom is in the front row with the apron and tie.Winterbottom%2C%20Carter%20%26%20Co.-5.jpg
I think I remember seeing bone being dyed on the Case factory tour, but as Jan said, Case uses so much bone, they probably outsource as well. As I recall, Case does jigging as well, but perhaps not all the jigging.
Case does import their bone which does not surprise me. The sheer numbers of the scales they do, it works best dyed and jigged before coming into the factory
Thank you David, for your contribution. We are glad to have such a great historian as one of our members. Besides our cutting up, education of the knife hobby is so very important.
