I assume if it had D2 steel, they'd advertise that fact. I have the D2 one and it lives up to the hype. This one is a handsome, functional looking knife. Assuming it has similar build quality, it'll be well worth 6 bucks. Knife enthusiasts get worked into a lather over different grades of blade steel, but ordinary consumers just buy the knife and use it. As long as the steel grade isn't outright awful and you educate/equip yourself how to properly sharpen a blade (sadly an essential yet increasingly rare skill), then type of steel isn't nearly as important as some people make it out to be.

Well isn't D2 harder to sharpen than many other steels? That being one of the qualities it is relevant in that sense, not as a steel snob but just as far as how well someone who isn't already good at sharpening can do it. And I understand if a steel is too soft that also makes it hard.
