    Default O2 in the US!!!!

    Somebody has managed to track down O2 from a major manufacturer in the US, Starrett!!!! So you European guys bring out your HT recipes!!!!I really want to try it in my damascus mix.

    The same as O1. Make it hot, quench in preheated oil, temper for an hour at 200C.

    Semi-false alarm. It turns out that this is a small batch of leftover 1/4 and 1/8 stock from back in the 80's or 90's when Starrett was still selling O2. i will likely buy a little bit just so I can make some super dark mosaic damascus, but no regular supply is forthcoming for us poor schlubs in the US.

    That truly sounds like a plan, I hope you are serious! I will pay in advance for a full stick, I have a project that I have been thinking about for years & it would be perfect for it!
