I like D2, it's a hard working steel that does a lot of things well. My first D2 knives were from Bob Dozier. I think he runs his to about 61 Rc and gives them a high thin hollow grind. They'll cut, no doubt. I have an Ingram D2 knife to wring out this fall along with my Dowell B&T. Brett had that M4 knife already made up when my turn on the list popped up. That M4 is at 65 Rc and Brett offered to make me one just like it in D2 if I wanted instead of the M4. I guess some guys have trouble sharpening the M4 but so far so good for me. I expect good things from it!


Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
