Laser Cut 1095 High Carbon Steel

SendCutSend’s 1095 High Carbon Steel comes “as rolled” and is ready to become part of your custom sword build, specialized tooling, or next set of sushi knives. It’s the best material for many of these projects due to its high carbon content.

Starting from $29

Hardness & STrength

Wear RESISTANT

Edge Retention

1095 High Carbon Steel All-Purpose

Our laser cut 1095 steel is made with hardness and sharpness in mind.

Boasting a carbon content greater than common mild steel, 1095 is the ideal choice when hardness, and therefore edge retention, is the goal of your project.
