Between $300-$500 myself, I only buy premium American steel. It's a matter of professional pride at this point. But not many can say they do what I do for a living.
Having read your posts for several years, I'm curious, Dean.
What do you do for a living ?
Super Alloys , recently got promoted so now I am a supervisor at 27. Specializing in Nickle Cobalt stuff that does not melt and cannot corrode. Very expensive used in aerospace applications. We make the legendary Stellite 6K too
