Review on πŸ”ͺ RMP High Carbon Annealed Knife Blade Steel Billets - 1095, 2" x 12" x 0.187" for Knife Making by Mike Devine

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Do not buy. Too heavy.

This material is harder than woodpecker lips. The band saw barely left a scratch, so I used a cutting wheel. Drill holes? Better 5 new drills per hole. I'm not sure what this company uses to cut this steel, but it's definitely hardened. Unless you have a grinder and plasma cutter I would stay away from this stuff. Too difficult for an average instrument to work.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • No performance
