Great old Queen!
Look at this tang stamp chart, I believe your knife matches the 1945-48 era.

Queen Tiny Toothpick Amber Bone - 2005 Show Knife

Queen Cutlery Collectors Inc. sponsored its first biennial Queen Show in July 1999 in Titusville PA. Queen decided to run their shows in odd years because the Case Collectors Club ran its shows in even years. Queen began offering Show Knives in limited quantities and this continued every other year with each Queen Show. In 2014 Queen Shows started running every year rather than every other year and this lasted until 2017, the year of the last Queen Show before Queen closed its doors in January 2018.

Pretty little Queen! I've been gifted several tiny toothpicks made by Case over the years and they are just too little to be useful. Love the beauty and functionality of these little jewels but.....
Not being ugly, Q, just my take on little knives.

Mahalo Floyd, I do love me some nice amber bone (even if it's only the regular jigged variety that's not CSB!)

thanks for that info about the shows Q! Didn't know that.

My pleasure, Tony. I learned that from the guy I bought the knife from and I'm always glad when I learn something that I can share with others who will also appreciate it.

100% agree on the relative uselessness of the size, Philip. Although I knew it was only 3" when I bought it, I was still a bit shocked at just how tiny it actually is in hand It looks so much bigger in pictures! But like most my knives, it's destined to remain a safe queen, never to be used, since the reason I bought it was for its uniqueness as a collector piece--specifically the double shield.

Do you (or anyone else) happen to know the Queen pattern number for this little guy? I want to say #14, but every time I think of that number all I can picture is a Case Peanut. I know the large toothpick is #20, and I thought Queen made a medium size toothpick too (don't know where I got that idea; probably just wishful thinking).

Q,
A list of later pattern Queens says that #16 is the mini-toothpick.
That little S&M #16 sure looks good cuddled up to that big one!
