1084
This maybe of interest to a few of you if it turns out to be what it says it is:

I just saw that this morning. Email has been sent. Hopefully the analysis will show it to actually be something close to 1084.

I sent Mace an email about the steel last night. If it is the real thing I'm gona buy a bunch. I did tell him that I would have to see the analysis before I would agree to purchase any. Lylle Brokhorst is also talking about getting a run of steel poured....not sure what exact analysis he's going with, but we have talked about it a couple of times.

I saw this post and thought I should let everyone know about the the analysis on the batch of 1084 that Mace and I got a hold of. I had cut off 2 short pieces from 2 different bars in the batch and the results are as follows.
Carbon .86 and .89/Required = .80>.89 Manganese .67 and .70/Required = .70/.90 Phos .008 and .010/ Required = 0.040Max Sulphur .021 and.028/Required = 0.050Max The testing was done by Inspection & Testing Services, Inc. out of Linden, NJ. It's the real deal! Mace and I forged out a few pieces last weekend. We were both smiling. If anyone is interested drop me an E-mail and I'll give you the particulars. Thanks Aldo Bruno The "New Jersey Steel Baron" PS- Ed, I just had to do that! Last edited by Aldo; 02-26-2006 at 06:38 AM.

My order is already in. I'm really looking forward to it. I'll be able to stop splitting wide stock down the middle on the bandsaw to do hunter sized pieces. ( What a pain )

I just bought some from Sheffield's. Was I had?
Might as well count me in for some of this stuff too. If they are 12' bars I'll take 1 or 2 depending on price. Cut it into thirds for me? __________________ Andy Garrett https://www.facebook.com/GarrettKnives?ref=hl Charter Member - Kansas Custom Knifemaker's Association www.kansasknives.org "Drawing your knife from its sheath and using it in the presence of others should be an event complete with oos, ahhs, and questions."
