Got mine last week and is in pocket right now. I understand the main blade wobble aspect- the master blade is thinner than the split springs on mine, so it's impossible to have a tight enough fit!! Not extreme, but shouldn't be on a $100 knife in my opinion. Thick grinds at the tip of each blade (all blades could cut- a first for me with NIB Queen), I actually like the needle like pen blade, somewhat blunt coping blade though. Stag is very nicely done, minimal amounts removed to make it flush with the bolsters, but one scale has some pretty noticeable saw marks in the stag. Nail nick for pen blade is very shallow, combined with very short nails of a massage therapist means occasionally I have to take a second try when attempting to open it. Next to no deviation of the smaller blades when open.
Despite the issues I really do like the little knife. Unique grip friendly handle design, great unique master blade (swayback clip??), well hafted stag, unobtrusive, beautiful bolster treatments (I love pinched and grooved bolsters). I will try to contact Queen about the blade wobble, and will report back. I hate shipping things back across borders for repair, so I'm not sure what my end result will be. I am glad that they tried such a unique pattern I will say, gives GEC more competition IMO, which should be good for us end users.
. I think Queen may have knocked it out of the park with this one. I'll let you know for sure in about two weeks.
