Bone Winterbottom Queen

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.

Bone Winterbottom Queen

Post by royal0014 »

Picked this 'Q steel' at the flea yesterday, just because it's BONE
::ds::
Pocket worn, I think. Blades still have life left in them.
Decent snap, walk, talk. 3.5 inches closed.
No other markings on the knife ....

Nice find. It's a pattern #58 swell center. The #58 had a spear main and the #57 had a clip main. 1958-1960.
