Mike, I run into the same problem using old water pipe and sucker rod from wells. The carbon content isn't really what you call constant. I would wear out drills and blades for my metal cutting band saw. Now I one use those carbide tipped drill bits and a cut off saw. When your making gates and such you don't care about the hardness of the finished product but you don't want to screw up your tools either.
