Dixie Gun Works sells strips as well  in nice sized strips. I believe it is 1070 if that will work for you.

Brownells item NO. 149 FLAT SPRING STOCK
Currently out of stock but this is a good assortment of sizes and will probably last you a life time.

McMaster-Carr is the best source for me, always spot on, with excellent customer service and delivery is usually next day.

How much do you need -- I got a small sheet of 1/8" thick material that I can cut you off a piece - price is depending on the size you need - send me a PM if interested.

New Jersey steel baron is a good source for high carbon. He caters to knife makes. I've bought several pieces of 1084 from him.
