What blade steel is 01 comparable to ?

Depends on tempering, I guess. Various threads here on BF comparing it to 52100, among others.

I love the fact that it's parkerized. Don't like the "sticky" feel of DLC, typically, but this one will be different.

It also means, I think, that Gen 6 20CV/M390 Bowies are around the corner :)

Thanks! I can't claim the design, I just made it happen :) he wanted the bowie transition on the spine different than stock (pushed further back towards the stud) with the swedge. We were originally gonna do a compound grind but ended up going with a hollow instead.
 
DLT is going to put a HURTIN’ on my bank account.
New 3.0 XM-18s on the way next week. Good grief Rick, make it stop.
 
Thanks! I’ve signed up for those notifications numerous times and seem to rarely get them... Good looking knives. Think I’m gonna hold out for more Bowie’s though.
