Any thoughts? I am considering the Kershaw Blur. I know they have switched the steel from 440A th 13C26. Is it worth it? I can get the old steel online for a great price.

You might want to check the Kershaw subforum. As for the difference, I like my Kershaw in 13C26, I see no reason why you shouldn't.

In my experience using my 440A Leek and 13C26 JYD, they are both good steels. I find that 13C26 takes a slightly sharper edge, but that is just my experience. I haven't used the 13C26 enough to know how it holds an edge, but my guess is it's close enough to 440A that it won't be a very noticeable difference.
Either one seems like a good choice to me.
