    Yes, the graphs say that but I have seen D2 in a roll forming machine rolling out 100's of Km of steel without issue, and I have never yet chipped a D2 blade, so I guess it comes down to heat treatment, and the use of the knife.
    Everything is a compromise, but that makes good justification for buying a back-up knife! Now, where's that list again .......
