Good morning all this is my first post.

           I am a fireman in northern Va and a black smith andI am hitting a

big snag in a very important and special project for work. about 10 ago the 
only tool company worth a damn that did not use chince dutle iorn tool heads

went out of busness. Now the ony company making a 6' new your hook is using 
ductle heads and the pry bar inds counldnt open a coke can. I have been 
reclying 1045 crow bars to make new heads for my co workers, but i would 
relay like to use 1095, L-6, or as seires steel but cant find any in 3/4" by

1 1/2" unless i buy multiple stock legnths from allmetal forge in Atlanta 
wich i cant afford on the shops budget. doe any one have a sugestion for a 
vender or alternative matrial. The tool head is used to breah 3/4" ply would

roofing, doors and just about anything you want to put a hole in. I would 
love to make it durable enough to breech a block wall.

thanks
chad
