Can you recommend someone who provides heat treating services on ATS-34? I know Paul Bos is excellent and will do these but I only have 5 or 6 blades ready for heat treat. I realize Bos will still do this many blades but at a significant higher cost per blade. I'm looking for some other alternatives. Thanks in advance.

Research the local yellow pages for the nearest bigger town and call around to tool and die shops, etc and ask about HT. There always seems to be somebody hiding in the Industrial Parks that SOME people know about and have used for years. 
If you are lucky you might find a local shop that has someone that is is interested in knives and knows something about it.
