Saw a Queen Hawkbill today while I was out and about. It had wood handles. Anyone have a ballpark on the date?? Don't have any pics. Knife is not mine.

Thanks Gino, I'll have to try and get another good look at it soon.
However, it isn't as nice as the one that you are displaying.

Did acquire the Hawkbill, never got around to posting pics. Just now trying to catch up on some stuff. Any help on dating this knife or giving me any information would be greatly appreciated.

Magoo, That one appears to be in the 1958-1960 time line. It's pretty clear in the Queen tang stamp chart.

Thanks treefarmer. I didn't know that list existing. Found it here on AAPK. Good information to have.
