Looks like they might have the stuff
If you ever have a reason to go near the Chicago area, stop by Admiral Steel in Alsip, IL and pick it up there. You'll save a fortune on shipping. Doesn't make sense for a special trip but in case you're there it's worth it.
Yep, that's who I would order from.
I have a feeling, you might get to help
Thanks for the link. I've been toying with building a knife lately (actually for years, but have never gotten around to it). My project won't be near as ambitious as OneBadV8's, though, at least not in size.
Sometimes smaller things require more precision. I'm just trying to cut down on that so hopefully it'll be less skill.
I know billyboyr6 on here has cpm-M4 for sale for way below what it normally sells for.
I checked their site and couldn't find the thickness and widths for steels that I was looking at.
The plus side of a hammer and anvil is there no such thing as wrong size steel.

Don't forget the bag of coal.
I was hoping to cheat and only have to use a grinder and sander
