Schatt & Morgan

Schatt & Morgan, a fine, old, and very collectible name, was founded over 100 years ago and bought by Queen City Cutlery in 1932. In 1947, Queen City changed its name to Queen Cutlery. At least part of the operation is still housed in the original Schatt & Morgan factory.

Schrade

Schrade Cutlery is producing a remarkable new folding knife designed by Michael Walker and Ron Lake, two of the most prominent of the World's folding knifemakers. These two men sell their handmade knives for thousands of dollars each. Working together, they have invented a way to mass-produce the locking mechanism invented by Michael Walker, which I call a Walker-Lock.

Seki-Cut

SOG

Any time you are considering knives from SOG, you are looking at some of the most popular knives made in the late 20th Century. Spencer Frazier has been enormously successful because he is a business man, he insists on quality, and he has come up with some outrageous designs that really pleased a lot of knife people.

Spyderco

Spyderco is one of the top "Specialty Knife Companies"; specializing in the production of knives of somewhat limited interest, instead of the making of knives for the mass market.

SuperKnife

The Super Knife really is the Ultimate Utility Knife. This is a box cutter with style. It uses any of the utility blades available for standard utility knives. We have illustrated six different blades which will work in this knife including household and contractor grade blades. There may be others.

Swiss Army

Timberline™ Knives

Viper

The knife industry in Europe, as well as in Japan, has always centered around one area in each country. In England, it was Sheffield, in Germany Solingen, in Japan, Seki City and in Italy it has been Maniago. In the recent past, we have seen a decline in quality knife production in England, Germany, the United States and most recently in Japan. There are good companies making quality knives remaining in Germany, Japan and the U. S., but they are few. Many have succumbed to the pressure to make cheaper knives which has resulted in the move of a tremendous amount of knife production first to Taiwan and then to mainland China. It is only Maniago that has managed to hold much of their high quality knife production.

Wenger

This unusual knife is made in Switzerland by Wenger and has been discontinued by the company. The 2-3/4" closed Swiss style pocketknife, with an embossed image of a Snow Leopard on one side, features a 2-1/4" pen blade, a nail file, and scissors. A great little dress knife at a great price.

William Henry

William Henry is one of the very best of the new semi-handmade, semi-production, knife makers. These knives are made to extremely high quality standards of materials and precision in workmanship.

Winchester

These knives feature the Winchester .270 Cartridge shield. Cartridge Series is etched on the master blade.

Wrangler Knives

The Wrangler® brand on a knife is a new idea. We know the brand for the good solid clothing produced for the western working man. Sometime during the past year, they made an arrangement with some folks within the knife industry to license the brand for knives. At this point, there is only a small quantity in the line. It will be interesting to see what becomes of this.

XIKAR

This company is well known for their quality cigar cutters. With these new pocketknives they are trying to expand their business into the cutlery business. This is the first time these knives have been available through us.
