Steel Numbering System
In this video I give a brief explanation of the AISI steel numbering system for carbon, alloy, and tool steels. Also, I discuss some of the steels we use in our production as well as offer for sale.

This video introduces the intricacies of of the relationship between an adze blade and handle. Below is a link to the adzes we make. www.jasonalonontoolmaker.com/shop/adzes
Carbon, not being metallic, thus can not be an alloy. Carbon is an element added to Fe to produce the many different cast irons and steels used in engineering. Metallurgy is all about chemistry.
Missed 3 common steels in my shop... A-36, 1144, and 12L14
You left out M tool steels. Usually called High Speed steel used as a cutting tool. Probably one of the most important tool steels out there. M2, M3, and M42 are common. As for 5160, it's spring steel very common in leaf springs (6150 in coil springs) and if you're into knife making, 5160 is a nice material for sword blades. Been involved in manufacturing and metals my whole life, although carbon steels are more on the rare side. We work mostly with steels like Alloy20, Incoloy800, CD4, Duplex 2205, H-loy C, 440C, Nitronic50, 316L, Ferralium 255, etc., although 9310 and 8620 are not uncommon for pivot pins. Bottom line, it's nice to see other people out there who work with their hands AND their minds to make things. 🙂
You are right, the M series is very important. I inadvertently left it out of my non-exhaustive list since I don't use it as much as some steel. Someone once gave me a piece of M50. What can you tell me about that one?
@@jasonlonontoolmaker Don't think I've ever worked with that steel.
@@jasonlonontoolmaker I looked it up. Looks like it's a bearing steel similar to 52100.
Hundredths of a per cent, not tenths.
Yes, thanks for the correction!
Good info! This is the system I learned when I started my T&D apprenticeship back in '77. But there seems to be a bunch of trade-names and letter/number combinations for todays 'designer' alloys.
Good video; but unfortunately I can hardly hear you even with the volume al the way up.
Thanks, I am working on my audio set up.
Great! Thanks for the info.
Thanks for the very informative video!
You are welcome!
Very nice
Very nice instructional video. Thank you.
useful stuff for both the maker and user of Adze' thanks for sharing
All of these observations show how an "expert" worker such as Jason has worked out these minor details that give him a much better ability to work word. Great job Jason !!
Thanks so much! I am glad you enjoyed the explanation.
the pun at the end killed me. now i know i'm old. great video. took me forever to figure out what was wrong with my adze. lots of busted knuckles before i figured out it was too closed. never had one too open, but it's nice to be aware of.
Glad you enjoyed the video. It does seem that too closed is more common than too open.
Great job explaining and showing how to carve the bowl. Thank you 👍👍
You are very welcome. We are working on a new bowl carving video showcasing several of our tools while carving a large cherry bark down bowl.

Very nice!
I picked up bench #2 in March from Dan. I had a great time putting it together. Joints are very tight, and tolerances are close. The leg vice works like a dream. This bench has lifted my woodworking several levels. I also bought 2 hold fasts which were a bit tight, but with a little use working great. Far exceeded my expectations. Could not be happier. Thank you, Dan!
Looks beautiful. Personally, I feel I have far more in common and belief with a man whose hands are stained with work residue. You cant buy authenticity.
Man you must be able to bust out a bowl in like 20 minutes! Can't wait to see what Isaac will smith haha
so good, thank you
Lol it's like Im getting to see what the Amish do! (I know youre probably not Amish if youre on YT)
Probably need to sharpen it
The wood carving calls to me. Unfortunately, I enjoy combat sports and having a livable income too much to drop everything and become a craftsman.
Superb!
You have a great helper
Great demonstration - thanks so much, Jason. I need an Adze now😂!
Wow sir How do the smiths quench that tools?
thank you for sharing this, much appreciated . i'm real curious about that neat vice you got there. i've just started trying step up my woodworking game, and man these C-clamps were giving me hell. i've resorted to screwing together jigs for whatever piece im messing with at the time. it would be nice to not have to do that
I recently found a draw shave curved and twisted slightly. Guessing cooper shave but not sure.
I need a power hammer. Looks like fun.
A power hammer is a game changer for sure.
Promo sm 😕
This looks like the current batch of axes you are offering. It looks different than the one I got a while back. Beside the grind of the cutting edge, were there changes to the handle and design of the head profile? Thanks Jason.
I could listen to this all night long
I received the carving axe roughly a week ago I love it very good for knocking alot of material off fast!! I am using the carver to make 4 legs for a carving horse now. Awesome tool!!
Great to hear!
"Scorp" that's a great word!Do you know where the name comes from?
That’s a good question. I don’t know the history of the word.
I bought a #6 bowl gouge last week. The quality is amazing.
Glad to hear you like it. Happy carving!
Got mine the other day and its awesome!! The handle is perfect, ordered carving axe last night
Justin is responsible for the final design on that handle, and I think he nailed it.
@@jasonlonontoolmaker yes , the carving axe handle is equally awesome and the curly maple on my new chisel is amazing !!
Also, Dan's new green woodcraft bench makes a great bench slave. 👍🏻
I recently got one of the new benches and am just starting to use it. Looks promising!
Congratulations! I have a UA-cam channel and it's called kcf móveis planejados. I love working with wood. I have a tool like this, I thought your video was incredible. Congratulations always!!!! God bless you as you grow a lot!!!
Great looking tools as always
Thanks 👍
I wrote you two emails, each of which were not responded to. DIsheartening really. So, instead of buying, I'll be making those as I started my own smithing journey last year. Turns out, its not as difficult as I originally imagined it to be. I still like your presentation style, value system for living and supporting the folks around you. I wish you success.
My apologies about the email, I don't remember seeing any from you. Feel free to reach out again at: jason@jasonalonontoolmaker.com. Great to hear you have started smithing! There is nothing as rewarding as using a tool you have made yourself. All the best.
I have been wanting to buy one of your carving axes for a while I look at your web site every morning hoping one will be available. Have a good day Jason!
Geiles Teil!
Beautiful wood. Great looking bench👍👍
Me: "When can I pick it up?" Marvel: "You'll have it by next 2035" 😐
Hardly any teeth left in that saw! 😂
Just needs to be flipped around
Cool
Wow very cool tool.
Nice
