As far as I know 440C was used at least through 1976. I have a factory letter dated 1976 that states that.
I think that they went to 440A by the early 80's or possibly by 1978-1979.

That knife is from Queen's "Chipped Bark" series that was made from the early 80's through about 2001 or 2002. I believe that the steel used in those was 440A but I have no way to know for sure.
