O1 Tool steel.

Hey,

I'm looking for some flat ground steel to make a knife with, most of the suppliers on-line seem to have delivery charges greater than the cost of the steel.

I'm looking for 500 x 40 x 3 or 4mm.

anyone know any good places?

Sorry, you have to recognise the humour in someone from Sheffield asking where to get steel.

How about paying these folk a visit, in person...

You can order and pick up in person. I have mail ordered from them, and it isn't bad, but there are alternatives.

Cheers guys, got some from Cromwell along with some other bits I needed, only like £2 delivery, not worth the petrol

lol, I know a little ironic, but I don't live in Sheffield it's self, I live in one of the towns around it, about 20min drive to the centre, and it's all 1 way and very confusing.

Corus is where we get our steel from. They might not send the wagon round for a couple of knives-worth though....
