About 52100 Steel Barstock For Forging And Knife Making
52100 forging steel is an ideal steel for knife making as well as many other metal smith type hobbies. 52100 steel is a high carbon steel that is very easy to shape through a process called forging. This steel lacks some of the manganese of other steels and as such has a lower harden-ability. The added carbon creates a carbon rich martensite with plenty of free carbon for good abrasion resistance. This steel required more care in the heat treatment process. Also, avoid lamellar annealing and overheating with this steel.
