Valid point and valid question. I was only pointing out that, unlike the Randall catalog comparison, this knife offers full exotic handle material...verses partial or non-exhitant exotics on some less expensive Behring Namde Knives. No offense taken or questioned...just the facts.
Also: Stainless at a $65.00 option on a #12-9", #14 grind..
