Queen Jet 25 Vintage Switchblade knife Black & Gold re-scaled

Queen Jet 25 Vintage Switchblade knife Black & Gold re-scaled. This knife was made in Titusville, PA by Queen Cutlery in the late 1940s and early 50s and it measures 5 inches closed and just under 9 inches open with brass liners & pins and nickel silver bolsters and button cap. The long clip blade is nearly full and retains original factory finish and is stamped Q with a Crown on the front and PAT PENDING on the back of the tang. The Beautiful Black & Gold synthetic scales are Not original to the knife, but have been professionally installed and really look great. The knife works great with blade tip below liners closed, good snap and stays open with pressure from the back spring (slip joint style) just as it's supposed to. These were no designed to lock open. No safety. EX+ condition.
