Recipes can drop at any stage of the game, with basically no limit on when; Though I believe the crucible recipe specifically is slightly skewed towards a higher gamestage(but can still appear even at level 1, with incredible luck.)

That said......Iron is not 'sub par'. Iron IS par. Steel is the hole in one or birdie. You can do tons with T2 equipment and armor.

Progresison is Stone->Iron->Steel. There's nothing after steel- Once you have steel, you're done. You'll never find better, ever. So you really shouldn't be into steel anything before day 21 at the earliest without some incredible luck.

Edit: Electric tools exist, but, frankly, i consider them sidegrades to steel tools; not upgrades. They're a lot more trouble than they're worth imo. But even including them, Iron is par.
