Mill specs are;   C-0.78%,   Mn-0.39%,   Ni-2.1%,   Cr- 0.15%    Spring tempered at (42-45 Rc)

To make it a little easier to figure, I will put the approximate number of pcs per size for a set amount.  This will enable you to know the cost of a number of pcs needed to make a billet of damascus. I will start with a set amount of $5.00 and you can double or multiply to get the needed pcs.

Price does not include shipping --  Free shipping on $120.00 or more on Flat Rate Boxes (12" or less pcs)

For pcs that are .049" and .053" (same price each)

  1" x 4" - 15 pcs / $5.00----        1 1/4" x 4"- 13 pcs/ $5.00 -----          1 1/2" x 4 - 10 pcs/ $5.00

 .

1" x 4" - 10 pcs/ $5.00                     1 1/4" x 4" - 8 pcs/$5.00                    1 1/2" x 4" - 7 pcs/ $5.00

The mill specs for the 1 3/4" 52100 round bar:

                        C= 0.93    Mn= .30    S= .006    Si= .200    Ni= 0.05    Cr= 1.37       Mo= 0.01

  I have used this steel to pass my performance tests for the Journeyman and Mastersmith tests of the ABS and to win a lot of the cutting competitions of the ABS Hammer-Ins.  It was used to placed first in the 5" hunting knife, 8" tactical, 10" regular cutting and the first First Place at the Spirit of Steel with a 10" damascus blade of 52100 and 15N20.  For those that may want a bit of back ground on the steel and how it performs, Cliff Stamp did a test on it several years ago and some of the results were posted on Blade Forums.  Below is a link to the thread. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=159731&highlight=ray+kirk+bowie

Shipping address zip code is 74465 and USPS calculator is http://postcalc.usps.gov/ to help calculate the shipping costs to your address.  I ship priority mail unless otherwise specified by customer.

Priority mail has a flat rate box  that I can ship at least 30 pounds in for $10.95 plus $.65 confirmation cost.  If you can use pieces in lengths of 12" long, then that would be the cost of shipping priority.  I have also included a list of the places I will be in the coming year for those that live close enough to pick up their orders.

 

Custom rolling is $3.00 to $4.00 per pound  plus material and shipping.
