Joker - how is the pocket knife steel?

[Hashishiin]

I am wondering, because I am getting two Joker folders, one of which is more expensive and nicer, the other of stamped Zamak. Cheaper one steel listed as "420" but the more expensive as "Moly Vanadium".
Is this the same as their N670 or something used on the fixed blades?
Thank you! Any input is valued

As far as I know, MolyVanadium steel is a commertial name for 1.4116 steel, same as X50CrMoV15 and AISI 420MoV. Basic stainless steel, nothing too special but good enough for basic or kitchen cutlery.

Specifically is their treatment of it okay?

yes, they seem to do a decent heat treat on steels i own from them, including the 1.4116.....
