If you've considered one, I'll also add my recommendation to pick up one or more! Get 'em while you still can! A little over $25 bucks is a nice deal on these knives.
Mine arrived today and I was impressed enough to immediately order a second one with the other handle design. I got the clip point blades. The knife is solid, smooth, comfortable, locks up perfectly and is SHARP! (Very easily shaves hair.) I would say it is definitely a high-value, best bang for the buck kind of deal.
I have no problem with properly heat-treated AUS8, and that's what seems to come from the Taiwan knife makers (The Ontario AUS8 RATs and Cold Steel's AUS8 knives from Taiwan are good examples). I have a suspicion the Utilitac II and RATs might be made in the same factory as the Cold Steel Taiwanese knives... the fit and finish and great quality seem on par.
