With Chef, how do I output the knife.rb settings its using?

I'm using Chef knife and getting 

ERROR: Could not find cookbook xyz in your cookbook path, skipping it
ERROR: Failed to upload 1 cookbook.

Looking at the knife.rb for the project and it looks like the cookbook path is right. How do I output what the knife command thinks the cookbook path is and where it thinks its getting that value from?

I've used the knife config plugin recently to see what knife sees:

As far as I know, Knife looks for a knife.rb file in ~/.chef/ and if it doesn't find one there, it will look in ./.chef/. I'm not sure Knife offers a printenv equivalent, but you can always pass in -c, --config CONFIG to fix the upload problem.
