What do you guys think of it? A good knife? How it the fit and finish? Good edge? Comfortable to carry? Thanks for your help guys.
 
Love it. One of my favorite knives. Made by Queen. Great knife, amazing fit and finish. Good 1095 steel blades. Some of the nicest bone I've seen. One of my most comfortable knives for pocket carry. All edges are nice and rounded so you don't have to worry about it wearing out your pocket. I'm actually carrying mine today.
 
If this is the Queen brand Canoe you speak of, which has the Cozy Glen marking, its a good, solid lock-up, well-made knife. Same thing as the regular Queen Canoe, without the Cozy Glen marking.

I have one of each, and they are the same thing. I don't have a pic of the Cozy Glen flavor, but it looks like this regular Queen Canoe, right? Hope I'm not totally mixed up about this, but its possible. The one shown has D2 steel, which the Cozy Glen does not.

Like Mr. Winter said, its good stuff. Solid, somewhat hefty, rounded profile for easy EDC.

The Cozy Glens have 1095 steel, and are definitely under-rated as a carry knife.
They have sunk joints, so no sharp edges to wear your pocket, and the single backspring keeps them thin yet strong.
Best front pocket carry there is, in terms of comfort and pocket-fit.
I carry one in my dress pants, but they are rugged enough for jeans.
 
I tried to get one, from the last dealer I knew who had them, but they were gone. Too bad, I would have loved one.
 
I knew I shouldn't have opened this thread. Every time I see one of those Queen or Cozy Glen Canoes I'm filled with jealousy, envy, lust, etc.

They are just about the prettiest knives around IMO. I have to get one. How far off is Fathers' Day?
 
Great knife, i carry mine regularly. I don't have a Queen in D2 to compare but IIRC the Cozy Glen's 1095 blades are thinner making for a lighter more pocketable knife than the Queen. Mine is Strawberry bone.

Been carrying and using mine a lot since I got it. Rides comfy in the pocket with slim blades that sharpen up real easy.:thumbup:

The Cozy Glen main blade is thinner than the Queen in D2
So the whole knife is thinner
 
I have had this Cozy Glen canoe for over a year now and it has been a great knife. Great blade and steel. Very easy in the pocket and the hand. Certainly one of my favorites. It is one I don't think I would ever sell. However, I have been contemplating make this my giveaway knife when I get to 1,000 posts which is not too far away. Like I said, I could never sell it but knowing someone on this forum would get some great enjoyment from receiving it would make me happy. We'll see if this is the one for the giveaway when the time comes.

As others have stated, it's really really good. One of the first slipjoints I bought (thanks Matt!), and still, after at least 15 or 20 traditionals later, one of my top favourites.
 
One of the best. I like it more than the regular Queen Canoes I've handled. The blades have a much better walk and talk and are nice and tight. The main blade is also noticeably thinner.
