Actually, you may have a third choice:

3.  Scrap yards.  There are fewer and fewer of them
these days.  Here in Charleston SC I think there is
only one left.  But, many times they will buy bundles
of bar stock that sat outside for a while and is
rusty, or will buy the bar stock from a company that
is going out of business.  If you are going to forge
it, it really doesn't matter if it has some surface
rust.
