Mr. Mark and Mr. Scott, I would like to ask you about some practical aspects of knife steel heat treatment.
a) At what temp do you insert the blade in the kiln?
b) Do you use the heat treating foil?
c) How many preheat stages do you use and at what temps? How long do you hold the steel at that preheat stages?
d) Can cooking oil be used for quenching?
e) Is there some time delay between quenching and tempering?
