Nope. They offer loads of knock-offs and use butter-soft 4034 (the German equivalent of 420) for many of their blades. The few decent knives they offer (usually traditional pieces, wooden scales, damascus) are overpriced IMO.

IIRC (don't quote me on that) they import a lot of their offerings which are usually made of 440 (probably A), so they should be of better quality, but I suspect that the heat treat on those cheapies sucks.
Forgot to add that they're liner locks are (in)famous for being unreliable.
