Any damascus heat treaters out there?

Okay, stupid question but doesn anyone know someone who heat treats damascus? I'm too chicken tyo try and do it myself with a torch. It's not cheap stuff and I'd hate to ruin it. I usually only work in SS steels and that's a whole other ball game. Thanks...R

Thanks Bill, Actually that is just what happened. I got an email from Mr. WIllams and he offered to help, one heck of a guy! Thanks!...Rich

PS, I think two pieces are 1095, 15N20, 4600E? and a couple more are just mild 1095 composite? Not quite sure though as I don't have the specs.
