Questions about Street Steel

[Overload]

A gentleman, who knows a lot more than me of such things, dislikes most push blades as they can rotate in your hand.  I'm a fan of the genre, and have versions by Benchmade, CNC Bladewerkz, Cold Steel, Marfione Custom Knives, Mercworx, TOPS.

A wild guess, but I would think that Mr Bane owns a Benchmade Kuma Zume by Steve Schwarzer.  It feels like his style.

If you could get basically the same knife (same mfg) in either AUS 8 or stainless 420 (priced about the same)  which one would you choose?

AUS-8 is considered a superior steel to 420.

Thanks, Overload.
