Re: A tutorial on lockpick metallurgy

The downsides of carbon steel can be negated if you wish. I have some highly polished 1095 picks made years ago that are untreated and show no significant signs of rusting. They probably have a very thin layer of oil from my hands and locks on top of the mirror surface.
