both the awl blade and knife are 1095 i buy it soft  in 2 inch flats. after shaping  i heat it to an orange red hot non magnetic, then oil quench. i do that twice ,I then temper it at 400 for a couple hours and let it cool slowly down. it usually comes out about 56 rockwell. The awl was quite tricky as it cools and heats really fast lol so getting it into the oil before cooling was fun. This skiving knife is chisel ground.
