Silver Steel

Silver Steel is a polished, ground, round bar of steel. It is available in 304mm (1 foot) lengths.

The name of silver steel comes from its polished finish, but it actually contains no silver. Silver steel is hard wearing and easy to machine and shape. It is also well known for its ability to maintain a sharp edge, so much so that it is sometimes used to make razor blades. It is also commonly used to make hand tools such as punches and blades for screwdrivers.
