Very good for Forging.
Great Stock for knives. It forged very well, very even. I stacked a few pieces on top of each other and ended up cutting and folding about four times. It held up during the quench, no warps, and was a very easy heat treat. Tempering was solid, and ended up with a decent bowie. Recommended for anybody who enjoys just playing around in the forge.

I am very pleased with my 1080 bar stock
I am very pleased with my 1080 bar stock. The fact that its American steel was the ultimate factor that decided to purchase it. I was a bit amused that I ordered two 1 ft long pieces but instead received a single 2 foot stock. Which is fine. Id rather forge one sword rather than two knives. In fact I can't find this product in a longer length which I did desire so I hope they continue that policy.
