New guy here. I just bought a Queen #70 From KSF this week. It was by far the most reasonably priced traditional styled folder with quality (D2) steel I could find. The knife is sized and shaped just right for me, the blade being .060" thick makes a great slicer. It was dull out of the package, as I have heard and expected, but I have no problem at all with that. The spring is tight and snappy, the fit and finish are great, and the blade took a shaving edge with silicon carbide and diamond. Huge improvement over the 14C28N blade I've been carrying lately. If one of the main attributes of a blade steel are "It sharpens very easily", I'm movin' on.
I can't say enough about the quick efficient service of KSF. The knife shipped the same day, and I got a confirmation email with tracking number, and I think it was only two days later that I was putting an edge on the blade. Some outfits know what the wait is like when you buy something online and have to wait for it. Some purchases go well, some not, but this one was great.
 
Sounds great. Glad to read about a Queen knife that makes ya happy! :). I've got my on some new old stock, if the guy at the gun show comes back with the checkered pearl doctor knife for $95, it'll be mine
