Given yesterday's unfortunate news about Queen, I am especially glad I have some of Queen's work from 12 to 14 years ago. I especially like the Queen stockman which is almost elegant in its fit and balance.

Two nice knives. Thanks for sharing.

I too had some very nice knives by Queen made in the 1990's and 2000's. Mostly S&M keystone series knives which were superb. I sold them all off to help fund my pre-1970 Queen collection (and help pay for my newest project, a 1978 Triumph Spitfire ::dang:: ).
I still do have my Queen ACSB collection which I believe was one of Queens best series. Their #06L Teardrop and #69 Straight jack were a few of their best efforts. I only wish they would have made the 06L Teardrop without a liner lock. They did make other Teardrops without the lock but the blade type was different.

These two were both issued in celebration of Schrades 95th Anniversary in 1999. We have lost a lot. :(

Some great knives, QS! I have the #26 in that same buffalo horn (love the white streaks in that knife) with D2 and I really like it.

I had no idea there were bone slenderinos! Add it to the "to be accumulated" list... ::pace::
