Application
1075 is a versatile steel suitable for beginner knifemakers, easy to forge and to heat treat at home with simple tools. It can make a blade of any size from a tiny wood carver to a sword or machete, or a guillotine blade. For many knifemakers it is what they make their first blade from and it remains a popular choice even for the experienced bladesmith forging high-end custom knives.
