Richie'66 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Does anyone know what type of steel is generally used to make garden shears ? Been looking on the web and the only thing that came back on one web site was D2 steel. Anybody else like to hazard a guess ? shears bought in the UK BTW.

ThomasPowers Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I would extremely doubt that run of the mill garden shears were D2. I would *guess* them to be more like a 1070-1080 steel. I would not bet that any two were made from the same alloy---even if by the same manufacturer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
