If there are, I need some advice. Someone posted on a list sometime in the past about "Drawing the temper" of a knife blade after hardening it by baking it in his wife's Kitchen oven. Problem is, I forgot to make a note of the temperature or the length of time which it was baked. Can any of you help out? Al Messer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
