Do any of you Arizona types know where I can get very small quantities
of tool
steel in the Phoenix area.

You should try visiting tool steel suppliers, as opposed to "steel
suppliers" (go and actually visit, maybe with doughnuts in hand). Here,
there are places like Uddeholm, Crucible, etc.

Ask if they sell off-cuts. I would be specific about what you want. W1 or O1
or whatever. If you talk the talk, they'll be more likely to help you out.

HTH.
