More about D2 Tool Steel:
D2 is a premium high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel renowned for its outstanding edge retention and extreme wear resistance. With a hardness of 58-62 HRC and a high volume of hard chromium carbides, D2 blades stay razor-sharp through heavy use on rope, cardboard, wood, and more. It delivers excellent toughness for a hard steel, air-hardens with minimal distortion, and offers better corrosion resistance than traditional carbon steels. Affordable yet high-performing, D2 is the perfect choice for serious users who demand a reliable, long-lasting edge without premium pricing. Trusted by custom makers and production knives for decades – D2 is true workhorse steel.
