5115 steel?

You should see some of the "pins" on construction equipment.  On the bigger stuff it isn't uncommon to find "pins" that are 4"+ and at least a foot long.  I hear they're made out of pretty decent steel too.  I think one of the mechanics said probably 4140, though I wouldn't quote me on that.

If you work in a mold shop, get some of the old ejector pins.  Most are H13 and make great hot-work tools.

i have a pretty good supply of the H13 pins as well...thinknig of trading some out so others can play with em
