Damn that's a cool one, never seen or heard about that one before!
Took me some seconds to realise that you didn't forget to remove the wrench, but that its actually the clip.
Very nice design. That way the pivot can't move, and you've always got a wrench with you.
Love the grind too.
What steel is it made of?
Don't know the steel, sorry...it probably depends on when they were made...possibly 440A or 420HC or Sandvik 13C26.

I picked up a black bladed Offset to go with my gray one. Not sure which one I prefer. The black one is serialized 915/1000, which appears to indicate that it is from near the end of the run.

I think it is Japanese steel. AUS8 or something, probably.
Redrummd,could you please add a extra pic from the backside of the knife ??? I am really curious about that safety lock .I haven't seen this before and you've already posted a sharp and nice pic of this knife.
AUS-6 is the blade steel on the Chubby.They made these in red, also (haven't been able to snag one yet), and I'm pretty sure made one for Sears.
