    There is a type of cutting stock blade that is just steel strips with
    a cutting edge.  I think its mostly used to make die cutters.  I think
    its basically soft steel with a hardened edge.  You cut it in sections
    and bend it around forms to make a die cutter.  I could have sworn it
    was called steel rule, but I can't find it under that name.  Help!


    You're close, if you search for 'steel rule die' you should see plenty
    of hits for the stock and products.
