UPDATE: More info - I printed the config from within knife:

{:flavor=>"m1.small", :security_groups=>["default"], :availability_zone=>"us-east-1b", :ssh_user=>"ubuntu", :region=>"us-east-1", :distro=>"ubuntu10.04-gems", :template_file=>false, :editor=>nil, :format=>"json", :ssh_key_name=>"test-keypair", :image=>"ami-88f504e1", :identity_file=>"/Users/alex/.ssh/test-keypair.rsa", :log_level=>:debug, :config_file=>"/Users/alex/Development/chef/rails-quick-start/.chef/knife.rb"}
