It's a folding hunter. A particularly popular old pattern.... one might argue that the pattern is the traditional pattern that had the greatest influence on present day knife design.
I missed what the blade steel is. Did Mike mention that in the video?
I think the different blade shape threw me off from recognizing the hunter handle shape.
Is there a photo or link with this thread? I'm not seeing the subject knife.

...and I personally find the blade on this one to be... well... ugly.
Hopefully there will be another version with a thumbstud instead.And that's coming from a guy who carried a Benchmade 940 every day for close to 10 years (before getting into traditional knives). I think maybe it's the far-forward shortish-long pull. Something about it just looks odd to me.
