    Yes they are really that stupid...and that's exactly whats going to happen.

    Thanks for the lead I will check them out.

    Let me tell you how bummed I was after spending a couple hours making a couple reamers only to find out they wouldn't harden...he must have gotten mixed up and sent up a piece of alloy.

    Make sure your wallet is full!

    Ever since the new owner (who I know personally) took over a few years ago, prices have at least doubled (maybe more) on any work to be done. Not sure about prices on stock/steel though...(but knowing the money-hungry S.O.B, I wouldn't doubt that it has jumped considerably also...)

    Good luck in your search!

    What I bought was O1

    W is much easier to machine but tends to warp more during hardening
