Defensive Knives & Other Weapons Most people that carry a gun also carry a knife or other weapon as a backup. Finding a good blade is often harder than finding a good pistol or revolver.

Why D2 on the larger blades? My D2 Kershaw Outcast tends to chip when doing chopping chores and a bear to sharpen. D2 seems better suited to smaller razor edge knives. Just curious hoping to learn from a pro

That's probably caused by poor heat treat. I have mine done by Paul Bos, the best there is. I've never heard of the edge of my knives chipping.

ETA: I shouldn't say "poor" heat treat as I'm sure Kershaw does a great job with HT. But it does sound like it is too hard and that is causing the edge chipping and difficulty sharpening.

My fingers look much better now with the stitches out - I'll try to take pics tomorrow when I change the bandages. :)

Looks like its time to get back to work. Good to see you are healing well if not pretty. How is the tendon doing?
