Hey Steven. I am not sure where you can find this steel outside of Japan. I know that NJ Steel, newjerseysteelbaron.com, Aldo had some Blue #2 at one time so he might be able to source some for you. Otherwise I would email Murray Carter, cartercutlery.com, since all he uses is either White or Blue steel. Good luck. Let us know how all this works out.

thanks for the info, I'll check it out!
