that's pretty darn cool that they add the heat treat on the box. I need to fire my forge up and start burning some metal again |

Can you post a link for the steel? Got a friend that makes knives, he might be interested in that. |

it is not cheap. I paid just under $40.00 for a 2"x5/32"x18" http://www.amazon.com/Steel-Precision-G ... B00CZDPAI2 They have many sizes available. I was a little shocked at the cost of O-1. I am used to buying steel by the ton and paying around 50 cents per pound. I asked around at my usual suppliers, they could beat the amazon price but not by enough to make it worth driving to get it. They also have 1084 and A-2 and a few others good knife steels available. |
