FAQ

What is the best way to heat treat this high carbon steel?

Heat the billet to a temperature of 1500‑1550°F, then quench in oil or water depending on the desired hardness. Follow with a temper at 400‑450°F to reduce brittleness while maintaining edge strength.

Can I cut this billet with a band saw?

Yes, the thickness of 0.12 inches is ideal for standard band saw blades. Use a fine‑toothed blade to achieve a clean cut and minimize material waste.

Is the steel suitable for making kitchen knives?

Absolutely. The 1095 high carbon composition offers the hardness needed for sharp kitchen edges while remaining easy to sharpen with standard sharpening stones.

How should I store the billet to prevent rust?

Store the billet in a dry environment, preferably in a sealed anti‑rust bag or with a desiccant packet. The silver finish provides a protective layer, but moisture can still cause surface oxidation over time.
