Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974,
as amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of an investigation regarding
certification of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the workers in
such workers' firm have become totally or partially
separated, or are threatened to become totally or partially
separated; and

(2)(A)(i) the sales or production, or both, of such firm
have decreased absolutely; and

(ii)(I) imports of articles or services like or directly
competitive with articles produced or services supplied
by such firm have increased; and

(iii) the increase in imports described in clause (ii)
contributed importantly to such workers' separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in the sales or
production of such firm.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on October 5, 2012 on behalf of workers of Queen Cutlery
Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Servotronics, Inc.,
Titusville, Pennsylvania (Queen Cutlery). The workers' firm
is engaged in activities related to the production of
pocketknives that are used as cutting tools or as collectors
knives. The workers are not separately identifiable.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and its major declining
customers.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in such workers' firm have
become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to
become totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(i) has been met because the sales
and production of pocketknives produced by Queen Cutlery have
decreased absolutely.
Section 222(a)(2)(A)(ii) has been met because customer
imports of articles like or directly competitive with the
articles produced by Queen Cutlery have increased.
Finally, Section 222(a)(2)(A)(iii) has been met because
increased customer imports contributed importantly to the
worker group separations and sales and production declines at
Queen Cutlery.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Queen Cutlery
Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Servotronics, Inc.,
Titusville, Pennsylvania, who are engaged in activities
related to the production of pocketknives that are used as
cutting tools or collectors knives meet the worker group
certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19
U.S.C. § 2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the Act,
19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:


"All workers of Queen Cutlery Company, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Servotronics, Inc., Titusville,
Pennsylvania, who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after October 3, 2011 through two
years from the date of certification, and all workers in
the group threatened with total or partial separation
from employment on the date of certification through two
years from the date of certification, are eligible to
apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title
II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 2nd day of November, 2012.
