g'day, can anybody recomend a good book on heat treating? cheers:thumbup:
I was just over at a guys house who had this book and it is a great book. It went into depth on every steel. I am going to get one asap."HeatTreaters Guide - Practices and procedures for Irons and Steels", by the ASM
Stacy
i Have The Books Mentioned So Far, They Are Great For The Coffee Table But Full Of Technical Stuff Not Applicable To Knifemaking. A Subscription To "blade" Or "knives Illustrated" Would Be The Best Bet To Learn How To Heat Treat The Best Knives Today And I Am Surprised That Nobody Included This Link Yet:

"Alloying Elements in Steel" - Edgar C. Bain
Wow, there is a ton of info in those books. I like the Verhoeven book best. 201 pages of info that will take me a few weeks to digest.![]()
