4 Pack 12x1.5x0.12 1095 Steel Flat Stock with Strict Quality Standards, The Perfect Knife Making Steel for Professional & Hobbyist Use, Annealed High Carbon Steel for DIY Knife Making - by TITGGI…

This product served me well for hobbyist knife making. They came straight and it was completely rust free. Each bar was individually wrapped which was a plus since I only make a knife every few weeks. I can confirm that they hardened well since I could drill through them easily when raw, but it ate through a couple drill bits on one knife when I forgot to drill holes before heat treating.

Good

Worked out great..reccomend

good value

Couldnt cut this steel with anything, after reading reviews that other ppl said that the steel is not annealed like advertised. i now assume that the steel i was sent is also not annealed. frustrating because i do not have a forge (yet) to anneal myself.

Item was just what I expected

Ive made a couple blades from this steel. Its shipped untempered, so its very soft and malleable. Very good for grinding and shaping. Once its tempered, the blades hold an edge very well. I will definitely buy this again. Its top notch.

So yeah, steel arrived in good packaging, nicely oiled so zero corrosion. It was also perfectly flat, unlike the last 1095 i bought from a different supplier. I traced out a pattern went to rough cut the excess steel and watched as annihilated the diamond edge on an expensive Diablo Metal cut-off wheel i love using. I grabbed a good Nicholson metal file and it skated right off the steel. I just started making knives and while my little diy forge is great for heating a knife to non-magnetic for hardening, i just dont have the ability to heat it for the duration and temp level in order to do a proper anneal. I guess its time to step up and make an annealing box or maybe even build an oven of sorts.

Definitely the most professionally packaged steel I have ever received. I look forward to working with it. So far, very impressed.

It was ok. It was pretty flimsy. Im no Ahnuld, but I was able to bend it by hand and its pretty thick steel. Worked for what I needed it for but glad I didnt buy it for automotive frame work or structural work.
