There's two ways to go here. 440A is a so-so steel for knives. The higher-end Ken Onion Kershaws use 440V, which holds an edge far better. However, I'm not sure if the flick-opening gimmick is really worth spending a lot of money on. I have a Kershaw Mini-Task, and while it's a slick concept, it doesn't seem particularly sturdy, and I never carry it. So, buying the cheaper Blackout might be a good idea, if you sharpen it regularly. Then if the gimmick breaks, you're not out a lot of money.
