Also if I do start over what steel grade should I use? I've heard on the forum that 1084 or 1090 are good metals but I've never tried them.

Alright I looked up all the links every one gave me yesterday and did a little research on my own. I am now wondering is case hardening practical to add more carbon to the steel or should I find some other material and start over?
