Nice find cudgee! ::tu:: It looks great, it's sharp, it holds an edge & it didn't cost too much. That checks all the boxes of a great EDC in my book. Congrats Buddy! ::handshake:: I like it! ::nod:: ::super_happy::

Here's one of the "New Queens" made in China (SMKW). I must admit that I was hesitant to take the risk after my experience with the SMKW China Mini-Trapper fiasco. But, I decided that for $16.75 I could afford to gamble on it and, truth be told, I'm very glad I did because this China-Queen Amber Sawcut Bone Wharncliffe is actually very well made; certainly comparable to (possibly even slightly better than) any Rough Ryder I've owned. I have no complaints and, in fact, I quite like it...a lot! ::nod:: (Closed Length = 3½")

I think you'll be happy with it, jerryd, despite having only one blade (I know you're more of a two-blade guy). In fact, I liked mine so much I actually bought a second one (one for each hand!). In the interest of full disclosure, however, I must admit that this knife is not entirely flawless; as you can plainly see, it does have a cockeyed shield placement (I noticed the same thing on the one Treefarmer got as well)--which really is not that big a deal (except, of course, to a certain OCD Monkey who can always manage to point out the single thorn on the stem of an otherwise beautiful rose :roll: ) Fortunately, the shield on my second one is not tilted, so there's a chance yours might be OK too. ::fc::

There were four things that outweighed the single blade. First and foremost was of course the Wharncliffe blade and then there was those sawcut bone handles. The price had a large impact on my decision but the thing that put it over the top was ~Q~'s opinion of the knife. That sealed the deal for me.

It's here. It avoided the porch pirates and was in the mailbox when I got home yesterday. Excellent!! If you don't have an aversion to China made knives, (along with ~Q~) I recommend it.
