Response from Stihl

I got a response from Stihl today. Unfortunately, they did not identify the exact type of steel as I'd hoped but at least they responded with information that is useful. It should be possible to make a decent knife and allow me to 'recycle' and old chainsaw bar.

Here's the response:

"We are in receipt of and thank you for your e-mail. The bars are made from high carbon steel."

Thank you again for your e-mail.

Best regards,
