Hi,
Anyone else notice how D2 loses it's hair shaving abilities quite rapidly once you cut several pieces of cardboard?
I recently compared ATS-34 and D2, and although D2 cuts longer, it's not as sharp. I holds a good edge for a long time, but ATS-34 holds a shaving sharp edge for almost as long as D2 -then its cutting abilities drop off suddenly.
If you're looking for a steel to make a really sharp knife that will shave hair and cut paper -which one would you choose for edge quality?
Or would you be better off with something like CPM 154CM?
Thanks.
