"Modern rebar comprises high-yield steel, with a yield strength more typically 500 N/mm=B2"

Does anybody care to convert that to Rockwell hardness for comparison with a typical cheap hacksaw blade?

Maybe your problem was due to good rebar, rather than crappy hacksaw blades...

Don't know about hardness numbers, but that's about 72,500 PSI. For comparison, yield strength of a Grade 2 bolt is 36-57,000 and a Grade

5 is 81-92,000.
