Is that any good?

Yes.
Fallkniven is also using laminated VG10.

I love the steel, love the look...but it seems a bit pricey to me.

Laminated VG10 is very good stuff.

 

[HARDMETAL]

it is made in Seki ,Japan .
There are a lot of choice of fixed vg-10 .
The handle of the knife is too narrow for holding .

I agree that the handle is too narrow.
Like the style of the knife, workmanship first class.
The sheath is not my favorite, too bulky for knife.
Knife remains in box, never used. If used I would have a new sheath made.
Weight of knife is superb for the size of the knife.
