AEB-L with nitrogen and vanadium. It's a really nice steel to sharpen, feels like a carbon steel on the stone.

Some info are available here:
https://knifeup.com/how-good-is-nitro-v-stainless-steel/
Extract:
"
Nitro V is a martensitic stainless steel with a chromium-based composition. The breakdown of the elements is as follows:
- Iron – 84.9662%
- Carbon – 0.68%
- Chromium – 12.98%
- Vanadium – 0.079%
- Nitrogen – 0.1098%
- Manganese – 0.78%
- Silicon – 0.384%
- Phosphorus – 0.019%
- Sulfur – 0.002%
I'm not a steel expert but I think that the corrosion resistance of this steel is preponderant compared to the cutting capacity (the carbon content is not very high whereas it is the case for chromium).That said, I have this knife that I wear and use frequently since my purchase (its robustness is reassuring) and I am very satisfied with its cutting capacity and performance... the heat treatment must be very well done (the "best" steel with a bad thermic treatment = bad result).GoodTimes

Further to the answer already given, it also holds an edge longer and is even less likely to rust.

I cant get this damn thing perfectly centered. Not too mention the action is shit unless I loosen pivot to the point of which it has blade play. I've been sitting here for over an hour messing with it. Amy pointers or should I just throw it out the window?

Lol!!! Good luck with that!!! Got mine a couple weeks ago and i have spent hours trying to center it. I think the liners are misaligned. Also, for me to get good action i had to loosen pivot. There is ever so slight blade play only when you pull back on axis lock. Very disappointed with a $100 knife that is this bad. I have a $20 Ganzo that puts this knife to shame with quality.

Yes, there are some options. Millit has made milled titanium clips available on their social media outlets. They can also be reached by email. The clip uses standard two screw attachment so many clips such as from Kizer and Kershaw knives can be swapped in. I myself ended up using the clip from my Kershaw Barge since the Barge is for me a toolbox knife that doesn't really need a clip. The Barge is also really low in price so you could buy one just for the clip though that might be odd.

I use the Spyderco Triangle system (ceramic) plus leather strop and I find it very efficient with this steel.
