Alight knife guru's
I don't have a heat treatment oven so I stick to 1095 for simplicity.
Today I made (stock removal) an 8" chefs knife and spent all day doing the flat grind and distal taper on my little 1x42 delta.
My fear is that such a long thin blade might warp badly with my normal procedure.
Would you recommend an edge only heat with a torch or perhaps a differential where I heat the whole thing but the spine stays out of the oil?
Thanks,Art
