440C isn't very 'fashionable' these days. None of the 'extreme' guys will be beating down your door for a knife made from 440C because it isn't the latest or greatest wonder steel.

That said, 440C is a very good steel with well established heat treating procedures, and I use it on stainless versions of my push daggers.
