<p>Brad,</p>
<p>That is awesome info and exactly what I was looking for. Donnie has some and asked me to look it up when I could type again. Thank you</p>

<p>1080 is a popular component in damascus and etches to a dark grey color. 1080 is often paired with 15N20 for pattern welding because the heat treatment for each is very similar and it produces a very tough high contrast pattern welded steel.</p>
<p><b>1084</b>:<br/> A discontinued tough tool steel that is very popular for forging when it can be found. 1084 has been replaced with 1080 and the specs for both are very similar with 1084 having just a little bit more carbon. About 6% more carbon.</p> anyone know much about 1084??tag:iknifecollector.com,2015-11-05:3181080:Comment:13685322015-11-05T15:09:16.205ZJan Carterhttps://iknifecollector.com/profile/JanCarter

1095 with a good HT is one of my favorite steels. IMO Heat treat is key with any steel.<br />
aside from 1095 I have only used 1070 in a Condor. It was hardened to a lower RC so the edge holding is noticeably less.<br />
I have played with mustard pantina but usually just let it go natural.

<p>I love 1095 steel and all of the 10 series steels. Everyone says 1095 rust easily but once it forms a nice patina and you dry it after each use, there's no problem with rust. Some confuse a patina with rust or decay.</p>
<p> I would love to learn more about a Forced Patina.</p>
