Queen Cutlery & Friends
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…See More

- About Me
- My Husband Donnie and I live in Hiawassee GA. I was Blessed to have found iKC and became the owner in October of 2012. I believe all knife collectors are created equal, no matter what type they collect. iKC brings a different direction to knife collecting in my opinion, you may not personally like something or have an issue with a particular company. But respect is a substantial aspect of what we are about. I have a strong faith and believe everyone is entitled to theirs.
- Interests
- History, fishing, Diving, knife collecting and about a billion other things LOL. My main interest these days is iKC and bringing the future generations into knife collecting.
- Other Hobbies
- there are other hobbies? OK, I found one! Watching my husband learn to build knives

ContinueTanto sharing for Bryan W
Posted on June 29, 2016 at 19:56 0 Comments 1 Like
This is a Tanto that was given to me by the widow of my best friend that died a few years ago. He loved the Japanese swords, and unfortunately I know little of its history. I did have an expert look at it, who determined it was made from a cut down (or broken) WWII Japanese sword. The polishing is not correct, the shape of the blade tip is a bit off, but the parts are all authentic and someone put a lot of time into this piece. The collar was noted as being very…

I don't often narrow my comments to USA but this holiday is one that is very close to my heart
I am a brat! I was raised being moved from country to country, state to state and base to base. It was honestly a privilege. I learned that no matter where you are in the world at 4PM every day, you stopped, placed your hand over your heart, listened to the National Anthem followed by Taps. You learned early that God and Country were to be respected and those lost remembered.
I…

Thanks for the very nice welcome. I am actually looking for information on Samuel Bell, who is a direct ancestor of mine. Mark sounded like he has lots of info. I have a few pieces of silver made by his son in San Antonio (my great-grandfather), but it was my mom who sold a lot of letters and silver in the 1990s, some thing that breaks my heart.

- I know it's a case centennial but the case emblem on the handle is gone and the tip is broke on one of the blades. It's a one dot red bone copperhead case xx centennial r6249. That's what it says on the blade
