- Blade steel
- Stainless steelThe manufacturer does not say which steel this is. "Stainless" covers everything from soft 420J to premium powder steels, so on its own it tells you almost nothing.Treat an unnamed steel as a budget stainless until the maker says otherwise. A maker who uses a good steel usually names it. Editorial guidance, not a measured specification.

What owners say
Most reviewers found the size and fit suitable for daily use. No shared criticism emerged from the group. Individual complaints included the lack of a non-serrated blade option and a Phillips head screwdriver that is too large. One user also reported the product fell apart quickly.
Read from 3 independent reviews (3 reddit). Fewer than 5 were found, so treat the agreement below as weaker than it looks. A point becomes a pro or a con only when two or more reviewers made it.
