I prefer a satin finish (applied with a fine Scotchbrite belt, after a 320 grit) on a working knife.
And a hand rubbed (to 600 grit) finish on special ones.

I use four belts. 36 grit to hog off steel, 120 3M trizact to smooth out grind lines, coarse scotchbrite then fine scotchbrite loaded with 600 grit compound.

Satin Finish hand rub up to a 1000 grit is what I like doing on my knives. It would like outstanding on the D2 Fighter knife. But you can go up to what you want and stop. It's all up to you as the maker. Have a great knife day and be safe in the shop. God bless.
