I'm thinking of picking up some Mike Norris Damasteel. I was wondering what the heat treat schedule is for these steels. Anybody know?
 
No one can tell me? I'm amazed.....I'm just trying to figure out if I can do it easily myself or not. My tempering capabilities only go up to 500f.
 
Peter,
Ask Mike Norris :)
I've used quite a bit of his damascus. Each type has it's own h/t info and I've heat treated it all with no problems.
 
Peter: The process I use is 1975 Deg. F. rapid air quench, Cryo @ -280 . Temper @ 425 Deg. F for 2 Hra @ temp. Repeat temper for 2 more hrs. R\C 60-61. Paul.
