Just a quick question, why do you guys choose the materials you do for the knives you buy.

The blades made of D=2 for instance, the chromium makes them tough and wears great but is brittle as hell.

I would rather sharpen the blade on a more forgiving knife.

But since its the end of hunting season and works slow I thought I might build a couple knives for myself.

I'm open for suggestions.
