YMMV, of course. Check Derek's site for more. He presents it better than I, but I was using this stuff many years ago for carving knives, etc. Cheap and effective.

Doug beat me to it! Look for metal cutting blades-either power hacksaw or bandsaw blades. Usually made from HSS and also work very well for scraper blades.
