416 stainless bar stock is getting harder to find. 416 round and hex stock is still being made but the bar stock is not -- or at least I have heard but can't verify it. I do know I can't find any 1/8" thick 416 ss from a bulk supplier. ( I know there is some residual stock at some of the other knife supply places. I am looking for a bulk supplier.)
When/if 416ss isn't to be found in bar stock any longer...what will you switch to? 410 or 304 or one of the others?
