"A recent discussion on "Presto light" and "skate key knives" (3-27-2022) has spurred me to put it on our website, with a few additions. Very interesting example of Queen Cutlery mining its own…"
"Tim, Thanks for the comment. The Mountain man Express is the 4.5" size and came after the John Henry Express, but used the same switchblade opening lock. It was generally quicker to open and easier to carry. More popular and around 96 different…"

"So are you wanting pictures of just queen or also S&M and Tuna Valley? "
"Billy Oneale and Bob Welch. Thank you for your interest and comment on these recent posts. We think it was a critical time! 50 -40 years ago makes it fair game for "history" "
"Have you ever wondered how Queen transitioned from a company that made "tools" to a company that thrived on making "collector knives"? David Krauss, Fred Fisher and I have begun a series of articles that focuses on…"
"QUEEN KNIFE to NKCA started the 1980s in a great way. You've seen this knife for years and here is is the story of the stag "BULLHEAD" that opened many doors for Queen.…"

Featureddead_left_knife_guy said… Welcome, Dan! Out of sheer curiosity, to which knife publication(s) do you subscribe? It feels like those of us with knife magazine subscriptions are rare -- even here!
And while I don't know much about Queen knives, I really fell for the Mountain Man & other similar knives (single blade lockback (trapper?) with a straight clip point (vs the curved clip as on the Buck 110 & similar knives)).
All that said, again, welcome!!
