Thread: Sharpening a D2 knife blade: some photos, observations, and opinions

For a warranty to take the cake check out ESEE, accidentally cut your knife in half with a bandsaw, no problem, send it back and they will replace it...

For me, I kind of like 01, sure it may be old skool and it’s certainly not a super steel, it’s going to patina the second you cut a tomato in half, but it takes the best edge of anything I’ve seen, it doesn’t chip like a super steel will, it does not require a diamond to keep it going (although I do use diamonds-nothing faster), a strop will work just fine and it does not cost an arm and a leg to buy.
