In light of SMKW’s recent issue of the new Queen Pilot Test Run knife, the editors at queencutleryhistory.com have published a short article “Is There a Future for New Queen Knives”. What’s your opinion?

Every month queencutleryhistory features a different knife or knives in the Historical Knife Spotlight on their home page. New today is a spotlight on the Schatt & Morgan File & Wire Series knives which were launched in 1998.

You can also read past knife spotlights via this link.

Coming up next month are some very rare and very early S&M folders.

          With Fred Fisher, Brian Guth, Ashley and Joe Mick, we have begun a new series on how Queen BOXED their knives from 1947,  now through 1980 . We will add both older and newer box treatments as this series grows.  It is based on having a broader history of Queen's products, and to provide modern collectors with information which will limit the attractiveness of "parts knives" following Queen's demise.

1947 – 1971 here:  https://secureservercdn.net/198.71.233.109/gbh.929.myftpupload.com/...

 

1972-1980 here: https://secureservercdn.net/198.71.233.109/gbh.929.myftpupload.com/...

These are first editions in a relatively untouched area of Queen History. If you have suggestions or would like to contribute, PLEASE CONTACT US  through Facebook or from the <QueenCutleryguide.com> site.

A couple people at Queen Cutlery History now have the new SMKW Queen Pilot Run mini-trapper and there is a bit of a review on the homepage, along with a lot more new content.

Bob,

Thanks for the info and for a new article to read during this time at home!

Lots of new material has been added to queencutleryhistory.com. David Clark has yet another article on the rare Jess Crouch knife, which was produced by Schatt & Morgan around 1915 to 1920 or so. Jess Crouch was one of the officers of the cutlery. The Queen Tang Stamp Guide has been updated again as we've finally acquired a picture of the elusive "small Q" stamp used only in 1971. On the Flyers and Ads page you'll see several new sales brochures.

Nice article by David Clark on John Schatt's punching tool - When you look at catalogs you see Queen appears not to have changed this tool ever, while offering it in different sizes in different patterns for essentially 110 years! 

      You can see in #37ballon  - 1958 at 4" closed;  

       In 1977 in jigged delrin and black delrin as #38 (B) at only 3..25" (catalog 50)         closed;

       and in 2004 as #49 horseman at 4.25 closed in CSB and Birds eye maple;  

        And finally, a picture of 6 teardrop with a punch in the company's last year of production at 3.75" closed.  The most recent one looks like the sharp tip is rounded a bit, and as David Clark comments, the bases of the blades might be modified to fit the larger or smaller pattern, but they sure look similar.  Used this kind of tool on boy scout knife and victorinox swiss army - Worked very well - why chane it.
