Here is what I could find,

Titleist MB: 1025 Carbon Steel

Ping i25: 17-4 Stainless Steel

Mizuno: 1025E Carbon Steel

Callaway Apex Pro: 1020 Carbon Steel

Still, even more game improvement irons will have a harder steel casting, then they will forge in a softer face insert. Though it still might sound a bit more harsh than some muscleback irons, a lot of game improvement irons have good feel.

Looks like most forged irons tend to go with 1020/1025 Carbon Steel.

Caste irons probably use more stainless steel. Again the face might not be the same material as the body of the iron.
