Hollis,
Yes usually finer grain is better and your logic is correct but not always easy to do in tool steels.
I think the differences between tool steels are surprisingly large and are quite noticable to the user in terms of overall performance and sharpenability.
The performance thing gets important when the knife becomes a life critical tool in an emergency.
