I’ve got a bunch of carbon steel rod. Any use for making blades?

Lots of different kinds of carbon steel. 1095, w2, 5160, etc all make reasonably good knife steel. Most steels have some amount of carbon in them, but lots don't have enough to heat treat to a reasonable temper. Be nice to know exactly what it is, but a knifesmith can usually do a spark test, file test, heat and quench, etc, and figure out pretty closely what he's got.

Used to be a lifeguard, until that blue kid got me fired.
