14C28N isn't a bad steel, Kershaw uses it in their mid to upper priced knives.
I went and looked it up, looks like that Smith&Wesson one is made in the USA, or at least it's heavily advertised as being made in the USA. Just for fun, I went and looked at Blade HQ, first at knives in 14C28N. The cheapest was a $29 Ruike made in China. Then I looked at the USA made knives with 14C28N. The cheapest was the kershaw Skyline at ~$50. There were various kershaws between $70 and $100, and then Southern Grind makes their $250+ Bad Monkey with 14C28N.
Then I saw that Bear&Son makes some axis style knives with 14C28N under their BearOPS line. Based on the styling, I'm guessing that if the S&W knife really is made in the USA it's probably made by Bear&Son.
I eventually found the knife you're asking about on Blade HQ:
BHQ's price seems about right
