Boker Bud Nealy fixed blade?

[CHP5]

I'm looking for a small, light fixed blade to carry in the <$70 range.

Any feedback on the Boker Bud Nealy fixed blade?

Thanks Phil. So this model uses 420 stainless steel. I generally think of that steel as junk. Do you have opinion on it?

The sheath system looks great.

In a self-defense knife, the edge-holding qualities of the steel are fairly unimportant unless you're doing a lot of practice cutting with it. Generally a knife like that is carried but not used (often).
