i send all my heat treating away to a firm that specializes in heattreating.
i worked out a deal with the foreman, i send him all the blades i need done (one att a time)
that way he can sneak them into the atmosphericaly controlled oven without anyone noticeing.
and if he finds something he likes he gives me a yell and i either finish the blade for him or make a new one..

so in about 2 weeks i´m going to be starting to send him blades one a week...
i´ve got 8 or 9 to het done..

i mainly use A2, Sleipner, D2, RWL34, 12C27, damasteel and elmax (the last 4 are stainless)
