It's absolutely true. Do you really think the stainless steel is
different in a 99¢ paring knife than a $3, $5, $10 paring knife...
only differences are shininess, etchings, and mostly handle
material... blade material is the exact same metalurgy... and often
the 99¢ parer is better because the blade is thinner.
