Saddle Horn Lockback Problem

The Queen Cutlery Company manufactured knives in Titusville Pennsylvania for 96 years. The company opened its only factory there in 1919 and commenced to make some of the best US crafted cutlery you will find. Unfortunately, the Titusville manufacturing plant closed down in 2018.

Saddle Horn Lockback Problem

Post by knowtracks »

Just talking to my knife dealer and it appears that there is a problem with the locking mechanism on some of the new Saddle Horn Lockbacks in the File & Wire series. I was told that a few of the locks failed! :shock: So check them out before you use this knife. I was told to open the blade and engage the lock, then apply pressure to the spline or back of the blade. But watch your fingers while doing this!!! A glove might not be a bad idea. Don't want to see anyone here get hurt. ::dang::

I'm starting to wonder what's up in Titusville, first they can't figure out how to build the new Premier (two years in the making) and now this?

could it be they are trying new ways to cut the cost of makeing knives?

We all know if any company does this they do not lower the price of the knife. :?
