Need a tutorial

[need2fish]

I just bought my sencond knife kit and would like to try some file work. Does anybody know of a tutorial for softening my blade for the file work and re-heat treating it? Is this even a good idea or should I wait until I make my own blade? Its a carbon steel blade. Thanks
