Mange tack Roger.

This sounds very much like the temps I use for my knives.

I actually temper the edge at 177 degrees Celsius, but I use a differential process giving the spine of the knife and ricasso a spring temper, and the rest of the tang being left dead soft.

Also, I use used motor oil as a quenching medium. Costs me nothing and works great.

What are the Rosary, the Cross or the Crucifix other than tools to help maintain the fortress of our faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God?
