thomas i do read your posts, u gota under stand that 50 piont carbon means squat to me, im a newbie and i have very little knowledge of smithing terms, im making spike knifes and spear heads for a com, the guy wants em hard and to hold edges while shearing bronze. i know thr amount of carbon in steel dose not determin how hard the metal is, it (i think) means how hard it can get. i dont wanna peev you and i aint gona argue cause im a neophite.
