The Battle of the Bites!

1. Short range

Both combatants have formidable knives, but Blade is a master of knife fighting, and can throw them with great accuracy, something that is not said about D. Though D's knife has two sharp edges to Blade's one, Blade is more skilled in this regard.

EDGE: Blade!

2. Mid range

No contest: while D's longsword is seemingly made of steel, Blade's Daywalker sword is made of Titanium, a far stronger metal, and is acid tipped. Both its strong metal and acid-tipped edge gives Blade the ability to cut right through the sper strong flesh of vampires with ease, indeed far more so than D's blade provides (this is simply logic. Though both can cut up a vampire, Titanium is a better cutting metal than steel, and acid further adds to its cutting ability). The first time these swords collide, the daywalker sword will cut right through it.

EDGE: Blade!

3. Long range

On the surface, the Benelli M3 Super90 seems the superior weapon: it has more bullets than D has wooden darts (unless he houses more than the 3 provided), and it should have more killing capability. But remember, D has super strength and speed, and can fling these wooden darts at great speed, as well as with superb accuracy. These darts will hit far harder than if they were thrown by a mortal, and I would bet they hit even harder than the shotgun bullets (They are bigger than shotgun shells). Still, Blade no doubt has more shells (both on him as well as in the gun) than D has wooden darts. Given this, I'm giving this a dead even vote.

EDGE: Dead Even

4. Special 1

Though D has at least three caltrops compared to Blade's single glaive, the glaive can return to Blade like a boomerang, thus removing the need for more than one of them. D will run out of caltrops eventually, while Blade will still have his glaive (which seems larger and can do more damage than the caltrops.

EDGE: Blade!

5. Special 2

The UV grenade is highly powerful, capable of incinerating a vampire. However, D, being half vampire, wont be damaged as severly by it (though its power alone will slamm him a bit). However, the Countenanced Carbuncle is a freaky and formidable weapon, capable of swallowing an object or element and then later using them on his enemies. He can ressurect himself, freeze enemies, burn them, or blow people away with a super gust, depending on the element (the resurrection being a crucial gift here). Consuming more than one element will heighten his strength and agility, while having it eat all of them will give him a power that can match that of his father (cough cough DRACULA cough cough). I've seen that power used against a powerful noble in the film, which looked like an energy-based attack, one that overwhelmed the far older and otherwise far more powerful vampire lord. Blade wont be able to counter that, no matter how many grenades he has.

EDGE: D

6. X-factors

D wins in experience, physicality and intelligence, while Blade wins with weapons tactics. Experience is crucial here: D is over Ten Millennia old. In experience, this should have been 90 to 9 (Blade is only close to a century old). Intelligence will also be crucial here (D lives in the distant future, has been around beyond Ten Millennia, case closed). His physicality superiority will give him superior speed and agility, which will not bode well for the slower, weaker Blade.

EDGE: D!

While Blade wins in the weapons department, D wins in X Factors. Blade will win in a knife fight, will win in a sword fight, and a long range battle, though his UV grenades wont do much against D's Left Hand. The Left Hand will possibly ressurrect D if Blade takes him out in a sword fight (likely how this battle will start), so D better have it eat earth before that. If not, this fight ends quickly. Either that, or the Left Hand eats the Daywalker blade before it can be used. Weaponswise, Blade will be dominant, but eventually, the greater experience (thousands and thousands of years of battle experience), intelligence,  physicality and, above all, his Countenanced Carbunckle will eventually overpower Blades weaponry.

D DRACULIZES BLADE!
