So, this is a question to get y'alls input on something I've been getting mixed reviews on, and that's lawn mower blade steel. I've heard some people say it's medium to high carbon steel, other people say it's junk for making knives. My guess is it's a mild steel, like 1055 or around there, but if that's the case then it would make a good machete. I got three old blades, so I was curious if any of y'all knew what kind of steel it is? I've never worked with it before. But if it isn't a medium or high carbon steel, then I'll probably use it to practice making blades on once I get an anvil regardless.
