Erik,

Would you tell me what the chemistry of 60Ni20 is, what it's used for and where you got it, please?

Mike

Sorry I missed your question.
It has .6% carbon and almost twice as much nickel as 75ni8 wich is the european version of 15n20. I do not remember the chemistry exactly but that's about it.It is available from Achim Wirz who is a damascus smith and steel supplier from Germany. He designed the steel and had it made in a steel factory. It welds very easy.

I can get you his email if you want.
 
Erik,

No you didn't... just took a while... =]

Thanks for the offer of Achim's e-mail address. I'd like to have it but I don't want you going out of your way on this.

Mike
