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

These metal blanks came well packaged they were slightly oiled which was nice, there is no rust or corrosion. This metal was as easy to work with as was described on the Internet. It is a great beginner metal. It does hold a very nice edge. Im very happy with how my knives have come out so far and I look forward to using the rest of these blanks as my craft can only improve with such great quality materials to learn from.

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.

Nice clean precut lengths Just right to make into a knife or a tool. 1095 is easy to. Work with... easy to harden and easy to temper. It makes fine knives that take a wicked edge . Good small parts for machines.... good tools... and treatment is snap. Im happy and this works well

These blanks came well protected with a shiny coating of oil to prevent rust. We will be making a knife from them as soon as time permits and will report back with pictures of the final product. So far they look like they will be perfect for the job.

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.

Remember, this is high carbon steel, so measures will need to be taken to keep it from rusting. Other than that, it is good knife blank material.

Package contents as described. Mostly flat, smooth, ready to turn into something useful like a knife. No rust - well packaged in that regard. I was a little disappointed that these were shipped without an other box. They all have a slight bend to them, probably from shipping abuse. Certainly not a ground flat item as received, but these also were not advertised to meet that standard.

Very well packaged almost annoyingly so. Metal is very clean, a wipe down with some kerosene and its ready for forge welding.

Made some decent arrow tips out of this stuff as well as a couple of throwing knives. Melted down in my furnace easily and took a good shape when just heating to fold.

My son has his own forge and makes knives, so he was super happy to receive this from me. The size of them is perfect for his needs and he said they worked great in the forge.
