F Forgedog Well-Known Member Feb 4, 2020 #3 Youre correct that is pricey. I wonder if forge welding flatbar would be cheaper by much. Thanks!
Self Made Knives Well-Known Member Feb 4, 2020 #4 For guards, I've bought 416 SS in a round or octagonal bar on ebay before at a cheap price. Forge it into flat bar. If you're talking 300 series SS that's easier to find in different sizes. Or are you thinking blade steel?
