Queen fixed blades

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.

Could someone help with information on these knives? Purchased in 1984.

Welcome to AAPK. Your knives are good ones to use and probably valued in the $40 range. I doubt they have increased in value yet only being about 30 years old. The top one is a woodcrafter style and is a good skinning blade. The other two would be good for field dressing game or general purpose knives. I'm not sure what other information you were looking for. If I'm off on my values I'm sure someone will correct me.___Dave

Welcome to AAPK. Glad to have you aboard.

I agree with Dave. Not high dollar collectables but good solid users.

Fine knives, I have a soft spot for the ladies (queens). Work'em, slice a mater or a tater or skin a bear that's what they are for. ::tu::

They may not be worth a lot, but fine looking knives.
