The obvious hitch to ordering steel I now know is the Shipping. I haven't found any local options and currently I'm squeezing every penny. What would my best option be on a $50 total order of say .250 x 1.5 in a 10XX.
Tired of scrounging and guessing. Last heat treat had me quenching 4 (2oil, 2 water) times to only get a edge quenched blade.
