Hi! I'm looking for a bit of advice on buying some steel. I've been hammering some arrowheads out of 4 inch nails. I'm fairly happy with way they came out (need a bit more practice though, obviously).
I'd like to have a go at making some from carbon steel that I could harden and temper. Trouble is I've no idea what I'm buying. I think I'm looking for 4mil roundstock. I looked on Cromwells and saw something called "silver steel". I don't know if this is suitable, also it seems really cheap, so much so that I think I must be misunderstanding something.

Appreciate any advice.
Cheers!
