i recently bought a kershaw blur. i read in a few different places that it had very good reviews. i bought the one at walmart. (yeah i know. might not have been the best choice) its the tanto with serration edge. buying it i was thinking i was getting sandvik 14c28n for blade steel. but reading now i see they have come in 440a and 13c26. i was wondering if i could somehow tell which steel i got. my understanding so far is that anything a little older is the 440a or 13c26. im not sure if i want the knife if it isnt the 14c28n steel. so if anyone had any info on this for me that would be amazing.

thanks in advance,
Eric W.
 
thanks. i wish kershaw printed the steel type somewhere on their knives... but yeah, i just bought it two days ago... i dont think it has been sitting in walmart for four years.
