Good metal.
Good metal works very and takes heat treat very good also. I did two primitive style blades no polishing. Hardened good and the temper did really good too. Ordering more.

Very good for Forging.
Great Stock for knives. It forged very well, very even. I stacked a few pieces on top of each other and ended up cutting and folding about four times. It held up during the quench, no warps, and was a very easy heat treat. Tempering was solid, and ended up with a decent bowie. Recommended for anybody who enjoys just playing around in the forge.

I am very pleased with my 1080 bar stock
I am very pleased with my 1080 bar stock. The fact that its American steel was the ultimate factor that decided to purchase it. I was a bit amused that I ordered two 1 ft long pieces but instead received a single 2 foot stock. Which is fine. Id rather forge one sword rather than two knives. In fact I can't find this product in a longer length which I did desire so I hope they continue that policy.
