      You’d be surprised at how many scrap items can be repurposed into knife blades. Lawnmower blades and hand files will both hold a great edge when heat treated properly. Rebar or railroad spikes are hit or miss. Springs or bearings are great choices for knife steel because they are designed to flex and undergo routine pressure and movements that require the steel to be accurately tempered. I also keep some mild steels on hand that are great for practicing techniques or creating jigs.
