Assuming this is actually the chef's knife, you're paying $60 for a wooden handle and a bolster. The version with the plastic fibrox handle is usually around $40-$45 on Amazon and has the same profile and the same steel.
edit: These might be forged instead of stamped, but in practice that should make no difference. Forging can make metal stronger, but proper annealing and heat treatment on stamped and forged for the same metal makes both equal. Here's a long writeup talking about this: http://www.cashenblades.com/images/articles/lowdown.html
