My Dad give me this knife as a present.
Ive been colecting queen knives for 3 months and I havent seen any of these.
Can any one tell me more about it,
Whats the handle material?
How much do you think its worth.
Thank you very much for your comments.

Oh Young Luke you have lots to learn.........
The knife pattern is called a Tuxedo Pen and has a handle of cow bone with Queen Cutlery's popular jig pattern called Winterbottom...as far as value its worth far more since it came from your dad...

The fact that it came from your dad makes it priceless.

I'll add my
. Same as everyone else. Because of the family link it's priceless.
That said, for some unknown reason, the Queen knives don't bring much in the collector market. The strange thing is the knives made by Queen for other brands (and they make a lot of contract knives) seem to sell pretty well. Crazy. Also, as a general rule, small knives under 3" or so, don't seem to do very well.
