Though I generally like Queen Cutlery's knives quite a bit, I've found that their quality just doesn't stand up to what consistently comes out of Great Eastern Cutlery's plant. That said, I recently ordered a Schatt & Morgan "Heritage" series Teardrop with Rosewood handles. Candidly, the quality of this knife absolutely blows away all my other QCC and S&M knives. In fact, the fit and finish on this particular knife is unbelievable!!!
