I don't know much about metallurgy, but I know that leaf-springs are pretty good steel and used by many knife-makers around the world.

Older leaf springs where supposedly made from 5160?  Or so I'm reading from this article.

Howdy e/a! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />  Those certainly sound like some pretty decent steel for knife-making. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I think I read somewhere that old Mercedes trucks' springs were considered one of the best sources of knife steel
