Question to the forum...
What are some carbon steel folders that are similar in construction to these?

:thinking:

there are plenty of tool steel folders out there, but you'll have a hard time finding a folder in 1095, 5150 or any other traditional high carbon, especially one that's worth buying.

there are a lot of folders made with D2, W2, A2, 3V, M4 and so on. there is a version of the Paramilitary that uses D2. Benchmade also uses M4 in quite a few models.

i agree with what you said about the way a knife is ground, but not so much with your thoughts on sharpening super steel. As far as my personal knives go i never let them get dull to begin with and that's the key with any steel

100% agree with this statement. 110% actually.:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Regarding D2, it is a tricky steel to sharpen. The carbides are MASSIVE. It is not a fine grained steel like A2, 1095, the CPM variants etc. I have never recommended D2 as an initial primary investment in a good knife unless you know your skills are excellent in sharpening an edge.
