Queen City
The Queen Cutlery Company was founded in 1896, in the town of Titusville, Pennsylvania. The company started out as a manufacturer of straight razors and soon began producing knives as well. In the early 1900s, the company moved to a new location in Gardner, Massachusetts. The company changed its name to the Queen City Knife Company in 1902.
Queen City produced a wide variety of knives, including hunting knives, pocket knives, and kitchen cutlery. The company also made scissors, shears, and other edged tools. Queen City used high-quality materials in its products and was known for its excellent craftsmanship.
During World War II, Queen City supplied the military with a number of different types of knives, including combat knives and utility knives. After the war, the company resumed production of civilian knives.
In recent years, Queen City has been acquired by new owners who have continued to produce high-quality knives using traditional methods. Today, Queen City offers a wide range of knife styles for both collectors and users.
