Patriot Steel - 1095 High Carbon Knife Making & Forging Steel 12x1.5x.125 (Four Pack)

good quality, nothing exciting. within a fraction of an inch in specs as listed, not enough variation to comment on. good for a blacksmith knife maker or stock removal knife maker (Ive used these as both)

I’ve made a few knives so far out of this steel and I like it. Hardens well and works pretty well too. Finished knives hold their edges pretty well. Overall, I would recommend this steel.

It’s 1095 steel. This is the second time I have ordered this steel. First time I got three bars. So it was missing one. This time I ordered two, so I should have got 8 bars. I only got 7. So 4 of 5 as I am not sure where the one bar keeps wondering off to.

My only issue with this product was the shipping material it arrived in. The steel (which is heavy) was placed in a thin plastic package and arrived taped and wrapped with duct tape. There were several tears in the package where the material could have fallen out. The material arrived a little banged up, but is great to work with.

Cut the billets in half and used to forge 8 smaller knives. Easy to use and a nice size to start forging with.

The steel is soft when it arrives which makes it easy to drill, cut, and grind. I found it to be easy to harden and temper. The knife I made came out to around 57hrc and holds a razor edge. Have already order more!

Nathan, the owner of this company is a class act and he knows his product inside and out. I would definitely recommend Patriot Steel as it is most certainly a superior product to Mr. Volcano steel.

I guess I got the junk everyone sent back? Very disappointed

Nice

Great steel.
