OK Guys, mystery solved on which steel was used.
Queen was very helpful and responded quickly to my concerns.
I will not judge them harshly. I have ordered diamond stones and will attempt to sharpen it myself.
Here is the follow up email.
The Steel for this knife is 1095 Carbon Steel and from my experience is about the easiest to obtain an edge on so I'm not quite sure where the problem is but I do know if you are able to attain at least a 22 degree angle on Carbon it seems to hold for a long period of use at least the way I use my knives, and I use them everyday for common tasks. Charles if you would like to send this knife to me at this address

I would be more than happy to check it out and deal with it personally myself and have it back out to you the same day it arrives here as long as there has not been anything modified on the knife and as long as there is still an edge surface to sharpen.
Thank You
and are apologies for this inconvenience
