The steel came nicely packaged
I haven’t started up the kiln yet but I did test a piece that I cut off because of the extra length I didn’t need. I ground a blade edge heated up then tempered. A file skated off it, and all the test’s that I can do gave me the okay for the steel being legit.

Perfect
We've had some pretty negative weather down here recently so I haven't got the opportunity to make any projects out of this material yet, but it showed up on time and it is what it is so. Thanks!

Not Annealed at all.
On the bright side this is indeed cheap 1095, however It seems to be Normalized or even in a slightly hardened, I tried cutting it with an M42 extremely hard 8% Cobalt bandsaw blade and it failed miserably. Then I tried to drill a hole in it with a 70 Rockwell hardness drill bit and it hardly even scratched the stuff. I don't know what they are doing but they must be normalizing it and getting an extreme enough air quench to slightly Harden this stuff, nobody the smallest attempt to soften the steel, I even waited an entire week for a new bandsaw blade just to make sure. This stuff is hard enough that I actually successfully tempered it and made it a little bit softer just by heating it up with a grinder. I bought this stuff under the impression it was soft enough to cut with an extremely hard band saw blade, fortunately for me I'm just going to anneal it because I have a even heat oven, but boy would I be ticked right now if I had to get a hole in this stuff without the ability to anneal it myself. Heed my warning if you're one of those guys looking to make a knife using a file this stuff is seriously over to 50 Rockwell hardness, I is actually more difficult to drill than AR500, my bit will actually drill AR500 with effortand is for SS plate. Again this is not a real problem for me I'm probably going to buy more, because I can anneal it myself but I'm pretty upset about waiting for a bandsaw blade that didn't even work.

I've been using this 1095 steel for for a couple of years now for knife making and have never had a problem with it.For me its very easy to work with. I'll stay with it till they give me a reason to get it from somewhere else.
