Well if you fill out your profile to include your location it would help to give better advice. If you're in Canada or overseas the advice would be a bit different than what we'd give to someone in the US. ;)

Lessee Jantz, K&G, Sheffields, (TKS still open?) Admiral steel, Pop's knife supply......... that's all I can think of off the top of my head. Have you tried searching for 154cm knife steel supplies or some other set of search terms?
 
Thanks. I'm in central florida, US. I tried searching for barstock but I couldn't really find anything. Ill have to look into it tmrw. Its a tad late. Goodnight fellow knife enthusiasts.
 
If you're in Florida then check out Sheffield's Knife Supplies or Pop's Knife Supplies, SKS is in Florida, Pop's in Georgia. Ummmm if you choose to order from SKS, that's a lady that answers and you had better know what you want (they have their full catalog online.) Pop's doesn't have much of a catalog online, they like to talk to the makers.... love them both, just different animals so to speak.
 
Try the hardware store. Nice place to get some cheap steel for your first knives. Once you get the hang of it, then you can move on to the knife suppliers. Though, I will say, I manage to get some pretty darn good blades from that cheap steel.
