Hello all,
First post and not sure if this is in the right sub-forum, so please direct me to the appropriate sub-forum if I'm posting in the wrong one.
I'm working on a knife with my sons and am using a 1055 steel blank for our first test run. I should have done more research and got a different steel, but that's beside the point.
I don't plan on buying a kiln and was planning on sending the piece out for heat treatment after shaping and grinding a bevel into the blade. Does the Forum have any suggestions on where to send it? Which company that will do Carbon Steel, not just Stainless alloys? I'm in CA.
Again, please forgive any mis-posting or using bad terminology.
Thanks in advance,
Ed :thumbup:
