A Pair Of Queens.

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.

Thank you TF. Any way of telling the year(s) these came about?
Is it the tang stamp design? Is it the graphics on the blades?
Or is it a combination of the two? Inquiring minds want to know. :D

The #9 was made circa 1961-71 (no tang stamp). The #16 was made 1973-75.
