ok so before this thread dies and since we are on the topic of steels and HT. is 1095 NOTICABLY better than 1084? I have a friend that saw the show forged in fire and now wants a blade with a hammon. so I have only done one hammon on1084 it ended up being higher up the blade than I liked but I figured ill give it another shot I have heard people progress from 1084 to 1095 but don't really know much about it I am going to write a email to njsteel and find out what manufacturer they use for there 1095 so then I can look up a spec sheet but I was wondering if it is even worth it...I mean if it is no better than 1084 then ill just use 1084 but if it is better then I deffinitly want to learn how to HT and use 1095
