I could not help but notice the picture for the sheath on amazon looks left handed, but the one on budk is right handed. I would apreciate it if someone could shed some light on this thank you.

It all depends on how you carry. Example self defense (i.e. martial artist), or utility (camping, outdoors.) It's a solid ambidextrious bowie ++ type knife. The knife is large, well made. If you carry with the sheath on your right hand side, the knife's edge will be back-facing. Here is a You Tube clip that I found. It may help you in your decision making. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdpkQNMeAY0

what kind of steel; is it 440????

The AUS stainless steel series is produced by Aichi Steel Corporation, Japan. They differ from the AISI 4xx series because they have vanadium added to them. Vanadium improves the wear resistance, toughness, and ease of sharpening.7AUS-6 (6A) is comparable to 440A with a carbon content close to 0.65%.7 It is a low cost steel, slightly higher wear resistance compared to 420J.AUS-8 (8A) is comparable to 440B with a carbon content close to 0.75%.7 AUS-8 is often used instead of 440C.7 SOG knives uses AUS-8 extensively.AUS-10 (10A) is comparable to 440C with a carbon content close to 1.10%.7 It is slightly tougher than 440C.

Well most Hibben knives where made in the United States, but now I'm not really sure because while it says it's manufactured here the steel could be imported then crafted here. But I can say that this is a good knife for the price.

How does the back of the blade work for sawing ?

Works well for a saw on a knife. Would recommend the product but if your going to cut wood a lot you would be benefited by a simple folding saw.
