Looks like the same knife. My blades don't rust but they do get crusty from continual seawater exposure.

Similar, except that the trilobytes are triple the cost and don't appear to have DLC coated blades. Also, mine came with 2 spare blades. So, for $20 delivered I got 2 knives and 4 spare blades. Not too shabby.

1. The Eezycut comes with 2 spare blades.

2. The blades don't rust, or at least mine haven't, they just get crusty from salt etc. build up - can be cleaned.

3. The Trilobite might be triple the cost but the knife on your link is "DISCONTINUED" so the price difference is academic.
