Maybe the Queen collectors can help me on this?? I have a mint in the box Queen Dan Burke carved pearl english knife. It was made a few years ago by Queen, not sure of the date. Can someone tell me what the value on the knife is??

Thanks Mike

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 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.. ::drool:: ::drool:: ::drool::

Are those Stanless Steel or Nickel silver liners??

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.

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

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

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.
