You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.

I think they made a mistake on their info...it says 5 inch blade, 4 inch handle, and the handle is clearly longer than the blade.
All SE all the time since 2017

Yeah, I believe they reversed the numbers.

I don't know, seems like someone's just reinvented the Buck 110. As for the steel:
Thyssen Krupp 1.4116
aka NIROSTA (R) 4116
Code Name X 50 CrMoV 15
.45 to .55 C
14 to 15 Cr
0.5 to 0.8 Mo
0.1 to 0.2 V
In other words, nothing special.

Yeah, it is 110-ish, but I like the wood color and nickel finish better.

Looks a bit out of balance when open, like the blade widens out some. I still like it though.

I don't know if I want to spend $80 for something a lot like 420HC, though.

Spyderco offered steels like AUS-6 and AUS-8 for three-digit-MSRPs, so nothing new here.
But I think the knife is more of a gimmick in the sense that people who already have the Wüsthoff Ikon kitchen knives can have a similar looking folder.
