Queen # 46

The Queen Cutlery Company manufactured knives in Titusville Pennsylvania for 96 years. The company opened its only factory there in 1919 and commenced to make some of the best US crafted cutlery you will find. Unfortunately, the Titusville manufacturing plant closed down in 2018.

That's a nice clean looking knife.
If the tang is not stamped, it was made from 1961-71. Queen did not stamp their tangs in those years and only etched the blade.
I also believe the handles are Delrin and not bone.

Here's a good article about the history of Winterbottom Bone by David Clark.
