Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

Please let me introduce myself...

My name is Robert Anthony Paolantonio, third generation owner, stockholder, and Cutler of Colonial Knife Company..After spending over 40 years in the original factory that my grandpa Fred and his two brothers built, I was overwhelmed with my own love for the art of cutlery...

 

Out of 12 men, second and third generation combined, I am the only Paolantonio to produce at least one knife, let alone the thousands of knives I have personally made in the last 30 years...

 

I felt it was important to tell the Paolantonio (Colonial Knife) story beginning with my grandfather Fred who arrived here in 1903, many years before his brothers Domenick and Antonio also came to America.

 

There is so much to say so I would like you to visit my blog : myfamilybusinessbook.wordpress.com..

Also try : myfamilybusinessbook@wordpress.com..

I can always be found and answered any questions about old Colonials, and can be reached at

bonfirebob11@cox.net..

Here's a pic of the foundation, literally, of the factory construction in the 30-40's....

Thanks for the warm welcome..Robert P. Colonial Knife Company Inc., RAP Cutler, and Heritage C..
