1084 Powder 5 Lbs (2.26 kg):

• Powdered steel is used in the manufacture of canister damascus or forge welded steel.
• This is "very fine" graded 1084 carbon steel from the US with approx 0.84% Carbon.
• Comes in a metal paint tin air tight and sealed.

1095 Powder 5 Lbs (2.26 kg):

• Powdered steel is used in the manufacture of canister damascus or forge welded steel.
• This is "very fine" graded 1095 carbon steel from the US with roughly 0.95% Carbon.
• Comes in a metal paint tin, somewhat dented but air tight and sealed.

Nickel Powder 1 Lbs (425 grams) in metal can:

• Nickel powder is used as a highly contrasting layer in forge-welded or damascus steel.
• Because the nickel does not etch, it will be a bright, shiny layer after etching.
• Nickel does not harden and needs to be kept away from what will be the cutting edge.
