Positive conversation with Peter Bruno

I remember way back when Aldo got into the business he sold 3/8” 1095. I remember he called it 1095FG because it had a touch of Vanadium. It was good stuff. I used a lot of it

I’m not sure if it’s fg or not. With the new site, that should be clearly outlined.

So if we have some of this W2 that is having issues, is NJSB replacing it if we contact them? I've got some of that new thinner stock i picked up back at Blade West in Oct and curious if this is part of the problem batch people are talking about. Haven't used it yet as i've had other projects, but been bit wary now since all this popped up.

If you try to harden it, using the normal W2 process, and it won’t harden, call Peter.

Good to hear, I have been following the recent W2 threads due to buying 6 bars, 6-8 weeks ago. Hoping it is from the "current" batch. I have one knife forged out, been waiting for a general consensus for heat treating the new stuff before continuing with it.

The new process should let you know which batch your specific bar is being pulled from. I think that’s a great idea.
