OK,folks, I have seen these blades listed as 440c and 420. (follow the link)

Is it really 440C? If 420, is it the 420hc like Buck and Gerber used? It is harder than my 420 sub-zero-quench from Cold Steel, but that ain't saying much.
And does anybody have any experience with them in the field? I got my hands on one, and it seems like a decent toad sticker. Just curious.

Maybe ask in the Boker subforum?
