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

I like how easy it is to manipulate. Very good material for making a knife. Easy to fold and made a great knife.

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!

My son and his uncle have a hobby of knife making with a home made forge. They stated that this was hard steel that was able to be worked into a knife.

The strips are of excellent quality for making things on a laser cutting machine. I would recommend them for the cost and the use ability

When this arrived I started thinking to myself how can I rate flat bar steel? Well as someone who welds and fabricates quite a bit of stuff around the house I can tell you this is very good quality. It arrived with a light coating of protective oil to keep it good during shipping. It was wrapping in wax paper and 3 layers of bubble wrap to protect it. When you have a company that takes the time to do their packaging like this you know it is going to be good. I mainly got this so my son could attempt to make his own knife. He has collected knives for several years and has wanted to attempt to make his own. After drawing a rough sketch that would fit the steel, he has been in the workshop most of the night working this metal. So far it is easy to work and he is making pretty good progress with it. Hopefully he will get it done soon and I can post some pictures of it for you all to see.

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.

These flat stock pieces are perfect for getting knife making started. They came packed tightly and very clean with no rust spots. Will work well for various sizes of knifes. Good price for the material.
