So I just picked up a Queen #38 Winterbottom Bone, swell center, Pen knife. I believe that it is from 1958-1960, based on the tang stamp chart that I referenced. It's not really my style, and I'm not a collector of Queens, but I couldn't pass it up. It seemed really nice for its age. If anyone knows anything else about this particular knife, I'd love to hear from you.
 
I can tell you that it looks nice, and that it's what is commonly called a tuxedo pattern but that's about it.
 
Tuxedo pattern huh! Thanks, I didn't know that. I figured I'd learn something new about it here. I really didn't find much by google searching, but I'll have to try again with my New info. 👍🏻👍🏻
 
That's a great looking knife. Queen calls it a balloon pattern. Here's a cut from their 1959 catalog.
The description of your knife, the pattern 38, is below the main description. If you fall out of love with it, contact me. :)

Thanks bdev! I may very well be looking to part with it at some point. I picked up a few lately, and can't keep them all. You'll be the first one that I contact, if I do. If you have anything that you think might interest me in a trade, feel free to contact me at lancebragg1@gmail.com
