Essential Supplies

From our Store

Knifemaking Steel

High carbon steel for bladesmithing. Excellent for forging and heat treating. The steel works well under the hammer and the size is perfect for a range of small to medium blade. This is a simple steel that is oil quenched and shows hamon lines very clearly when heat treated correctly. Perfect for Japanese style blades. You should get between 4 and 6 blades per length. 15N20 is the same as 1075 with an additional 2% nickel. It makes a high contrast pattern when combined with either 1075 or 1055 in Damascus steel.

  • 1055 - 4mm x 25mm x 530mm (annealed) 400g - $10 per length
  • 1075 - 3mm x 25mm x 450mm (spring tempered) 250g - $15 per length
  • 15N20 - 2mm x 25mm x 500mm (annealed) 200g - $15 per length
