Wow thanks for the advice guys.
I figured that would be the general view on mystery metal :P
But I smacked it around a bit and learned that I'm not as good as I thought I was, as I found it hard to keep everything straight and even while banging out a bevel.
So its been scrapped, and I moved onto something even harder, making Damascus out of steel cable!
Lets just say, my learning curve went from hard, to extremely difficult, but at least I had fun doing it.
It's back to the drawing board, until I can source some worth while metal to work with, or until I can master Damascus.
