Not forgiving (steel) no es manejable

Explanation:
Muchos aceros son poco manejables o moldeables, pero necesitaría un poco más de contexto para asegurar que la respuesta es correcta. EN algunas traducciones que he hecho para General Motors, la expresión "not forgiving steel" se refiere a su maleabilidad.
