How Much is Alloy 1090 Please give a real answer?

There is no way to give an answer - metal prices change daily. Alloy 1090 is expensive for a tool metal but nothing compared with gold. It is carbon and steel with a higher carbon content than other high carbon steel - the more carbon infused, the more expensive the metal. As an example, a cheap tool made from a cheap low carbon steel is $3 - the same tool made from the same weight of high carbon steel might be in the $50 range. Sorry I can't get any more specific but even if there was a place that listed the price on a given day, it would be a lie tomorrow.
