Guy swears it’s bright high carbon cable now but even if it wasn’t I’m sure if I used 1084 powder to forge it it would show some sort of pattern

Guy got it for a choker for his tractor. He said it’s bright cable after I asked but I mean he could be blowing smoke. Think I’m gonna take the risk at $100 for 200ft and if it isn’t high carbon I’m make mild steel Damascus for guards and what not

I’m about to buy 5/8” cable but the guy doesn’t know if it is bright or galvanized, anyway to tell? It’s not stainless bc it’s pretty rusted. I don’t want to waste the $100 but at the same time it’s 200 feet of cable sooooo Also I know this is 11 years later but not much on cable Damascus when searching they the good ol google
