Good choice.
" 'Luck' is the residue of design. "
I've bought 32 of Gene's knives for myself and as gifts. Of them all, mine (vs the gifts) have been used by far the most (though my kid with his original matched pair (In D2), before "whammer sets" existed, is catching up.)
I have over 70 big game critters worked up with Gene's wares. The top 5 blades that I most admire are: 2 D2, 2 S30V and 1 S35VN.
As always, pattern, grind and cook rule.
Simply aint no way that knife won't ROCK!!!
