Metal lab?

[Hmathews]

Does anyone know of a place that you can send a small piece of metal to be analyzed to identify the type of steel. I have tried to look for a thread on this but haven't had any luck.

Fastenal will do it, takes a little while and if I remember correctly it's about $50

We use these guys here at work. Dunno what they'd charge a knifemaker.

Thanks guys. I'll give them a call and see what they can do.
