Anybody like the congress pattern

With this discussion of Congress knives and the fact that I use a Case yellow handled (CV) model for whittling, it's only logical that I needed to add this carbon bladed Boker whittling Congress to the group:

Fortunately, I had just received a refund for an item that exactly covered the cost of this knife including shipping. (Isn't the way we justify things to ourselves a wonderful thing? ;) )
 
I really am starting to like the Congress pattern more and more: Here are a Case 88 and Case 52

That S&M is sweet looking. I've been eyeballing different patterns from that company for a while. Thanks for sharing.
 
I've been carrying a Jeff Claiborne, black lip pearl, half-congress to work (sorry, no pics). I find that the half-congress to be a pattern that's both comfortable to carry/use (the sheepsfoot blade gets most of the work) and very office friendly.
 
I only have two and both are the two blade versions. The latest is this Northwoods 4 incher.

In general, do the 2 blade versions share a single spring?

In particular, does anyone know about the Queen 2 blade?
