I do own one Remington branded folding knife and it holds an edge okay. It's built well enough to not fall apart or be dangerous to use as a tool. But, I paid something like $9 for it on sale at a Big 5 years ago. I wouldn't automatically thumbs down this deal, but just know what you are getting for the money.

Can you help me understand the significance of this regarding the quality of this deal?

The quality of the steel is the key. And steel production is top military level secret from country to country. When it comes to hand tools, knives and anything like that, made in USA, German and Japan, always cost MORE, but that's what you want.
Chinese steel is of lower quality than US steel.
That said, countries like China that have a very low labor cost will always be havens for cheaply made goods. But that doesn't mean they can't make quality knives and knife steel.
The Remington Stacked Leather Piggyback Fixed Knife Set is really stunningly nice and I regret not ordering more. I have some Bucks in the $100 range and fit and finish on the Remington is significantly better. Handle is beautiful and nicely polished and they are sharp as razor out the box. Sadly that is out of stock or I would order ten or more.
The Remington Hunter Trailing Point Folding Knife 4" is also very nice locks up solid as can be and had dropped close action right out of the box. I could have some quibble about minor ergonomics issues but overall again very very nice. This one still in stock.
Think both absolute great deals and even a steal at these prices.
