1095 Steel Flat Stock for Knife Making-Annealed High Carbon Steel,Flat Steel Bars,12x1.5x0.12,4 Pack

Good quality steel hardened up, did a test break great grain structure definitely worth every penny

Nice blanks. Came without any tarnish and are very flat with no deviation, oiled in wax paper and bubble wrap. I tried to bend one on the bench and it was very strong with minor flexing. All in all, worth the money. Time will tell how well they are when creating a blade, but we shall see. Worth it.

Good steel! Personally, I think they’re best to cut up and layer for some pattern welding, which is how I’ll be using them. They’re awfully thin at 1/8, but if you don’t take anything off the spine, you could make a decent smaller blade. They came clean, oiled to prevent rust, and wrapped in moisture-proof paper. Really happy with these blanks.

These steel blanks come shiny (not polished, but free of scale) and oiled. They were exactly 1.50 wide and 1.20 thick (so not quite the 1.25 of 1/8). Mine all had a slight bow to them over the 12 length, but its not anything I wouldnt be able to correct for. All-in-all, a decent product for the money.

These are good quality steel and are good for knife making or just to use as metal stock for projects. The steel is easy to work with in terms of cutting and forming. 3 of them were perfectly flat, the 4th was not. It can be bent back flat, but it tends to spring back to the curve pretty easily. I guess thats an indicator that the steel is good. Its not so good if you want to make a straight knife. Maybe I can find another use for the bent one. I like how they came packaged and were all rusty or overly oily. Perfect packaging in my opinion. Overall would recommend for knife projects where you dont want to scrounge up a piece and just want something made for that purpose.

Probably not the cheapest way to buy 1095 stock, but if you dont have a metal supply store near you, this is a convenient form factor for a knife blank or two. Cold rolled and partially annealed, this arrived at about 310 Vickers. For a stock removal forming process, thats fine-- it doesnt skate a file. There was a bit of a bow, which isnt uncommon with partial annealing of cold rolled, but might frustrate a beginner who got the most warped piece they ship and cant easily flatten it. But it was well packed in anti-corrosive and I measured it at 0.10.

They arrived in perfect shape. No rust, corrosion, or warping. Very well packaged. Call me crazy but I got these because the price was right and you can never have too many supplies on-hand. Once I turn them into something, I will revisit this review.

Very good quality and quick delivery!

This bundle of steel plates is very nice it comes already polished cut to the correct length and thickness if you are using it for a straight 1095 blade you won’t have to do anything if you are doing some type of Damascus you’re definitely want to degrease the Steel as it does come with a thin film of oil on it this is a great amount of steel for making multiple knives for the price definitely worth it

Very nice clean steel. Has a great weight to it and perfect thickness!! All in all I think this steel will work perfect for making knives!
