I picked up a 32" one of these 6 months ago. Great material for knives, hatchets machetes, etc.
It is super tough. i usually cut out and profile a batch of knives from it and throw them whole into a just well burning fire for an half hour minimum and let them air cool. this usually softens it up enough to drill holes and make grinding the bevels a lot easier. I later do a heat treat/quench to harden it back up
that'll last forever, i've cut at least 15 8"-ish knives out of it and one hatchet and i still have half of it left. Keeping my eye out for another one
