megical_bananaThanks for the great questions! I've used quite a bit of D2 over the years, especially during my time with LT Wright. He showed me how awesome D2 could be with the right heat treat... I think the edge-holding is great for hunting and utility blades, and I like the fact that it's very stain-resistant. The finish protects it even more, and makes it very easy to wipe down and clean.
megical_bananaAs of right now, we're offering a single SKU for this drop with liners and custom kydex included... I have done this knife in other color combinations though. You can contact me through our website for more information if you'd like!
EvshrugYes sir! I'm a former Pittsburgh resident. We're currently in WV, about a half-hour drive outside of the city. Whether it's Allegheny Co, Plateau, Mountains, or Street - it's a big part of this area and my background... Both sides of my family worked in the steel industry. Things have definitely changed over the years, but we honor the history. Our stamp is a smoke stack :)
megical_bananaThank you lol! These are tools and will hold up well with minimal maintenance. Wiping them off is usually enough... But if you really like to keep them looking new and shiny, you can use some dish soap and a brush to clean any crud out from the G10. A nice coating of oil and you're good to go. I recommend Ballistol or mineral oil for hunting use since it's more food safe.
