First off the retailer isn't a bf supporter so you'll have to remove the listing and all that stuff so you're thread doesn't get removed.

Now on to the knife.
the higo is a very renowned and respected traditional Japanese friction folder and it's using the famous blue paper Steel. the knife is one of those things where you can see what it is and you know exactly what you're getting, so you either want it or you don't ( I think you definitely want it though )
 
Ok, so than buy that knife or a Spyderco Delica in Super Blue if you want a more modern knife.

FWiW there are 3* types of blue steel (Aogami)
Blue #1
Blue #2
Blue Super (also abbreviated as AS)

*there might be more aogami variants, but this 3 are the most common in knife industry.
 
Blue steel is not super blue. Super blue is an upgrade from blue steel in terms of edge retention
