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

Carl, thank you very much!
Queen had to use the name "Queen Steel" starting in the 50's because the term "Stainless Steel" was trademarked. Your knife has no tang stamp, only blade etch, which would date it to 1961-1971 timeframe.
When I posted the first group i did not know that the NKCA 1981 was a Queen knife.
It is not marked with the manufacturer and I had to look it up.
Also I new but forgot that the black bone Winchesters were made by Queen under
contract.
Well went back to the gun show today and picked up 5 more knives.
1 was a 4 blade S&M Sow Belly
1 was a Buck 110 stag handled custom shop with sv30 blade.
1 was a Case stag Sharktooth
1 was a Gold Coast Chapter club 3 blade stockman Frank Buster Fighting Rooster
1 was a gold Coast Chapter club stag trapper Frank Buster Fighting Rooster
And how this is the Queen group here is the S&M
I will post the rest on the box of knives group
I went to a gun show today and there was a man selling his collection.
I ended up buying 2 black bone Winchesters, 1 older Queen, 1 large Eye Brand
trapper, 2 NKCA stag handled knives one of which was a Klass Kissing Crane.
Seeing as this is the queen group I will only post a picture of the Queen. Oh the
best part was I didn't pay more than $30 for any 1 knife.
Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you Andy but I do not have a shield for that knife. It’s been crazy the last month!
Kenneth,
That one of one is a beauty but you had me with the swing guard. A good swing guard is just a beautiful pattern to me and that one is a stunner!
