D2 steel is one of the best and most famous blade steels in the world.
Knives made from D2 steel are manufactured by well-known companies in the United States and Japan.
Knives made from this steel retain their cutting edge exceptionally well and are highly resistant to corrosion.
After heat treatment, the hardness of a D2 steel blade ranges from 60 to 62 HRC.
Blades on knives made from D2 steel are practically rust-proof, but since this steel has a slightly lower chromium content than stainless steel (13% chromium), it is recommended to wipe the blades dry and not leave them in damp places for long periods of time.
