Thread: Hen & Rooster

The real hen and Rooster is marked bertram and it goes back to the 1800s and was a very small knife maker making extremely high quality stuff. None better. In the 1970s they were bought by AG Russell Knives who used them to make knives for his brands and some under the hen and Rooster still marked Bertram. The company went bankrupt in the 1970s and the factory was sold at auction. Klass bought the name and made hen and Rooster for quite some time but all the workers and machines were gone so the quality suffered. Klass eventually sold the name to frost Cutlery who owns it now. I'm told the offerings in the 1990s have been made by Dovo but the current stuff I don't know where its made.
