What they screwed up in the Chinese translation was probably trying to say "linen micarta" since linen is made from flax.
Chinese knives have improved enormously in the past few years to the point there are high end knives from Kizer and other Chinese manufacturers that I own and carry. OTOH, you still see a bunch of stuff on the internet and at gun shows you have to look at with a critical eye and some knowledge to decide if you're wasting your money or not. Bad translations aside, when you see something like this it is always good to ask questions.
