The steel is not annealed yet.
The guy that gave me the pieces picked them up as leftovers from a job. He didn't have the paperwork to know the ##### of the steel, he just said that "it was a tool steel and it was hard enough that it could not be machined without annealling." (his exact words).
They are painted lime green on the ends, but I guess that don't mean too much since different companies have their own system of marking.
If it's any good for making knives, I have no idea!
The pieces are 2 1/2 x 1 1/2 x 1
