saw a Gerber fixed blade (Big Rock) at manafont .
i don't know knife so i wanna get some opinions b4 buying.
already found some reviews online. the opinions are mixed.
the blade is 440A (4mm thick). some say it's too soft.
anyway, $34.00, worth it?
also, should i use diamond dust sharpener on this knife?

I just can't get past that price for a Chinese knife, since I'm used to paying $5 - $15 for good quality knives like SRM, Land etc. But Amazon has it for $28.

And amazon also sells plain edge version, if you don't like serrated edge.
440A is perhaps more softer, but it has good corrosion resistance.
