Is there ever a bad excuse? National Knife Day (August 24th, mark your calendar) is basically a holiday for people like us. It's the perfect time to treat yourself to that Damascus you've been eyeing—or introduce a friend to the obsession. We usually run something special, so keep an eye out.

Is there ever a bad reason? National Knife Day (August 24th—circle it) is basically our holiday. If you've been eyeing a D2 blade, that's the perfect excuse. They're workhorses that'll still be going strong next National Knife Day, and the one after that. Treat yourself—you deserve a knife that keeps up with you.

Oh yeah—spring cleaning is therapy for knife nerds. Pull 'em all out, inspect each blade for spots, wipe with a light oil, sharpen if needed, and check the pivots. Rotate your carry. Maybe one gets retired to the display case. D2 blades often develop a nice patina over time—that's character, not damage. Embrace it.

Is there ever a bad reason? National Knife Day (August 24th—mark it) is basically our holiday. If you've been eyeing a VG10 blade, that's the perfect excuse. They're precision performers that'll still be going strong next National Knife Day, and the one after that. Treat yourself—you deserve a blade that cuts as good as it looks.

Oh yeah—spring cleaning with VG10 is easy mode. Pull 'em all out, wipe each one down with a lightly oiled cloth (mineral oil's fine), check the pivots, sharpen if needed. That's it. No rust hunting. No weird patina. Just clean steel ready for another year of adventures. Rotate your carry. Maybe retire one to the display case and bring a new one into rotation. It's therapy for knife nerds.
