WTB: Queen D2
Posted: Fri Sep 07, 2012 2:19 am
I'm looking for a Queen w/D2 blades for use as a carving knife. I'm mostly looking for either the single-blade "utility" or the 2 blade trapper but might consider others in that size range (around 3 7/8"-4 1/4"). Not interested in a congress though.
I'm not particular about the handle material, and don't even mind if the blade is tipped as it will get re-shaped. Mostly I'm just looking for a knife to experiment with to see if D2 offers a significant improvement in performance over the knives with 1095 blades when carving hard to very hard materials. I figured I'd check here before venturing onto the 'bay.
Thanks,
Jim
