D2 Steel – Why It Outperforms Standard Kitchen Knives

D2 tool steel is a high-carbon, high-chromium steel prized for its exceptional wear resistance and edge retention. At HRC 55–58, this blade holds a working edge significantly longer than mass-produced stainless steel kitchen knives, reducing the frequency of sharpening and delivering more consistent cuts throughout the cooking process.

What’s Included

• Handmade D2 steel chef knife (12.5")
• Leather sheath cover for safe storage and transport

Care Instructions

Hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Dry immediately after washing. Apply a light coat of food-safe oil to the blade periodically to prevent oxidation. Never put in the dishwasher. Proper care will keep this knife performing beautifully for decades.
