What steel is it?
What kind of steel is your typical hand saw made from? ..just a cheap cross-cut saw from say, Lowe's?

FWIW,
I seem to remember that things like that fall into the 1060 to 1095 "cheap carbon" area, but don't quote me on it...... unless its marked bi-metal, I'm not sure how those are done. Some are plain old HSS drill steel too..... G. __________________ http://ak-adventurer.net/  Gary Blessing, Ex-custom knife maker, Ex-Folder modifier & embelisher.
