There's a lot of variation with even well known brands. I've got some Boker Plus knives with 440C or AUS-8 steel. Both pretty good but nothing super fancy. I think all the SOG stuff is AUS-8 and at least made in the US or Japan.
I've got a SOG Spec Elite that's not even a year old which is showing a bit of corrosion on the blade and it's hardly ever been used. Sure is fun to open and close though.

I agree spence, the knives of today, don't seem to withstand time like they used to, especially the blades. Ive always tried to keep a thin layer of oil on my blades if they are going to be in any kind of adverse conditions. Its not a solution by any means, but it does seem to help with corrosion. SOG makes a lot of cool looking knives, I especially like the Seal Pup Elite... super comfortable in the hand.
