I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but there is a definite difference in the damascus pattern of G grade (D2) and D grade (D3) barrels. The pattern on the D3 is smaller, and tighter. It is also a much bigger pain to refinish (harder to get good contrast). Perhaps you meant if you didn't have the two together to compare along side each other? But even then you can IF you are familiar with the difference. Forgive me if I misunderstood the statement. I DO know that YOU know your Parkers!
