Heat Treating 440-C

[EricElson]

Well I'm just about to take my first dive into using stainless steel!! I picked up some 440-c last week and am just about to grind my first blade outta the stuff.

I was just wondering if anyone has, or knows were I can find the H/T specifications for 440-C.

Thanks in advance
Eric

I just bought an Even Heat oven from Texas Knifemaker's Supply today. They are sending me a list of all the popular steels and specs to treat them. I talked to Jim at: 1 (888} 461-4632 Give them a call. Nice Folks! Bruce Bump
