I have always been curious about what one steel different knife makers prefer for the sharpest, practical cutting edge they can achieve. By practical, I mean not a really thin edge that rolls easily or dulls after cutting a few yards of cardboard.
In particular, this relates to blades that are primarily slicers, and are less than 4" in length. Yes, I am on the hunt for another special knife or two.
I am not a knife maker, but a heavy user of knives to cut. I have knives in quite a few steels, both custom and production. My favorite for sharpness has been M2.
Thanks in advance for any opinion you can share.
