What thickness? Wich steel?

The kitchen knives are made out of D2 and 1080 and are 1/8th thick. They are ground only on one side with a very small secondary bevel. I wanted them to be tough enough for light camp use so but they still slice like a demon so far they do every thing I would like them to. I ended up going with D2 over 1080 for better edge holding and for the semi-stainless qualities, although making some for my sister and her boyfriend out of 440C.
