I haven't used D2 yet. What makes it better?
(Honest question. I really don't know anything about it.)
Is this a large or regular?

The material is called Juma............thank you very much............ and yes, I did.
Juma comes in solid colors and a few different patterns.
This particular pattern is called Golden Dragon.
Here's the other two patterns called Ivory snake and Red Carnelian.
It's pretty cool stuff.

that makes no sense. regular is a type of knife and large is a size. it is a sebenza 21 and it looks like a large
Thanks for the answer!Depends on what steel you're comparing it to. I'll compare it to s30v since I have more knives in s30 than any other steel. I find that D2 takes a very fine edge and hold that fine edge much longer than s30v. I love s30v but don't like how fast it loses the crazy sharp edge and turns into that working edge. It's still sharp, but I'm a bit obsessive compulsive about how sharp my knives are. I find it's easier to reprofile than s30v, too which is a plus for me. It also polishes quite well.
