Eero you got my curiosity up with the rustBK 24 in D2 steel. I had zytel handle scales on this knife for a couple of years and when I took them off there were small bits of rust. Havent seen this on any of D2 knives I own. Put a coat of mineral oil on it after I returned it to it's resting place.

Eero you got my curiosity up with the rustThought I might check mine out. I've had these scales on for quite sometime
lucky for me no rust
I also coated the it with mineral oil before putting the scales on. Gave it another coating it seems to work good at keeping the rust away
