Is it guaranteed to come razor sharp?

COLD STEEL states razor sharp. In reading the reviews before I purchased a few stated bad blade angles this was the case for mine. I put the angle to 15° which works for my needs from this blade. I have also found the blade release to be rather "stiff". I started with COLD STEEL in 1999 with a Voyager Tanto, this was well before the sold to the boys in Texas. It is a heafty rugged knife. It hasn't failed in any task in the field.

Is aus 10a steel a high quality blade material? how is it compared to cpm3v steel?

Apples and oranges, AUS 10A is a stainless steel in the 440C class, while CPM 3V is a high alloy tool steel. Cold Steel does a very good job with AUS 10A and in the 4Max Scout has preformed very well for me in some very demanding tasks.

Where is this made at?

At the Taiwan factory that makes most of Cold Steel's knives

It comes with G10 like the description reads?

No, you’re thinking of the 4-max elite, which is $500. “Instead of a G-10 handle the 4 Max Scout has one made of Griv-Ex™ with stainless steel liners and a Griv-Ex™ back spacer.” That being said, I’ve owned many Cold Steel knives...and is is BY FAR the best bang for the buck of any knife I’ve owned. As a matter of fact, I should buy another one, just to have.
