O1 500mm Lengths

O1 (Werkstoff 1.2510) is a tool steel. There is a lot of poor information recommending O1 as a good starter steel – it is not! It requires a kiln to get the best from the alloy. If you are starting out knife making and can’t accurately hold temperatures for 15 minutes it would be worth looking at 1070, 1075, 1080 or 1084 as they are easier to work with and heat treat. O1 though has good edge stability, reasonable wear resistance but it is not a tough steel.
