That is just one drop dead gorgeous knife. About May of last year, Woseyjales posted that in the Holy Grail thread as his holy grail knife.galvanic1882 wrote:Yep that is what mine looks like, it's the black lip pearl one!!!

Re: Queen Dan Burke
If you do decide to sell it, Woseyjales may be interested. (no guarantees on that
)

Re: Queen Dan Burke
galvanic1882 Just one more dance. Then you started up the old fire for her again.
I passed up buying both many times, due to poor photos. NOW after seeing your photos it cost me a new keyboard..
Are those Stanless Steel or Nickel silver liners??

Re: Queen Dan Burke
Resurrecting this old thread. Just picked up my first Queen Dan Burke Knife. Really taken with this Winterbottom bone handled stockman. I have seen some very nice black pearl doctor’s knives that I wouldn’t mind having as well.
Gary Thomas posted this one last week and I couldn’t resist it.

I've owned a couple different Queen Dan Burke knives over the years, but this #51 Mini Trapper is my favorite.

Re: Queen Dan Burke
That is a beautiful knife! I’m smitten by this bone color and jigging. I thought Queen’s specialty was amber bone stag, but now there is a rival for that #1 spot.
I hope you and others will post more pics of these Dan Burke knives, these deserve more attention.
Thanks Q

Re: Queen Dan Burke
Oh man. Beau-ti-ful knives guys
.
For sure the best Queens ever made. They perfected the colorization/fit n' finish on these Winterbottom, no question about it
.
Pre-2000 queens are excellent, these are perfect.
Got to pick me up some (eventually, after everything else I "need"
).

I've been hunting for a Dan Burke Barlow for some time and finally landed one. Has to be one of my favorites and one of Queen's best efforts.
