That's a nice old Queen. I tried to buy one a few weeks ago on ebay and didn't get it.

Was it a QUEEN CITY, Queen Cutlery? Queen Steel? What did it go for? Not that I sell anything but I'm just curious. J.O'.

Re: Queen City Hawkbill
I’m sorry I don’t remember what the knife went for. I saw it and made a bid or two when the auction was almost over and it went for more than this old tight wad wanted to pay.

My only Hawk/Pruner and my only Queen City (fresh from the Bay, $32.00), 1937-1945 era.
We are all just prisoners here of our own device.
In the master's chamber they gather for the feast.
They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast.
