New Announcement from the The Daniels Family !!!

I would just like to share some great excitement happing to our business with all my friends and family here at IKC. As of June 4 we are in negoations to purchase Queen Cutlery Co. / Schatt & Morgan where if succesful we will be taking over all operations. Everything is just in negoations and nothing is final yet but once happen I think you'll see lots of new and exciting USA made lines which we have always been committed to.

That sounds great! I'll just offer one piece of advice. Of course, we all love the high end blade steels and handle materials but when you take over a company that has a long standing reputation like Queen Cutlery, you gotta keep in mind that there are still alot of people out there who want to buy a nice, high quality, USA made pocket knife for a decent price so keep those folks in mind as you move along. But Good Luck with everything and keep us posted on the progress.

Clearly, lots of things to think through but the possibility is huge. Have you given thought how this might evolve with Tuna Valley? How do you keep the traditions of Queen and yet bring some new ideas and energy?
