Hey,
where on earth do I find steel that is 5/16" thick? Admiral steel carries a max. of 1/4", and no where else seems to carry thicker steels. I'm finished with leaf springs and all the frustration that accompanies them. So, where do I find equally thick steel? 1075 and 5160 are my main targets.
Thank you so much for your help; you are all always very helpful,

Joseph,
I just checked and it looks like New Jersey Steel Baron has .312" thick 1075. He's great to deal with and has a high quality product.

I will second Ed on this one. Give Aldo a call, 973-949-4140. Check out his website: Steel Baron
He is a great guy to deal with.

I would have to say the same as Ed and Brion I Just recieved an order of 1075 in .312" and some 1/4" W2 from him. Himself and all his staff are great to work with.
Awesome, thank you much. Will be contacting him!! Anyone with any other information or sources is welcome to add more 😉

Besides Joseph, Aldo is a bladesmith also. He knows what we need for steel.
