I recently made a forge like yours and heat treat my first O1 knife tonight. I loved your video as a nice hands on visual example of what and how to heat treat. I purchased and coated my blade with the anti scale also . Fingers crossed. Nice job!

Great vid Bacon. Allowing the steel to chooch properly before dunking in the shmoo is a key step in making a skookum blade! (ps you can grab a mapp gas brazing kit at canuckian tire for 50$ if you want to up the chooch factor on your forge.)

todd parnaby I was just told by a well-respected knifesmith that O1 didn't really shine in a blade until HC 62 or 63...which means hot. He claimsand demonstrates O1 beats VG10 in tests and practicality. His personal O1 he takes to 63.

@@jeremiahshineThe final hardness is dictated by the temperature during the tempering phase, not the temperature before quenching... A temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit will give you a harder steel around 62 HRC and 500 degrees about 57 HRC. I would suggest buying a cheap pyrometer to monitor the temp. inside the oven. With a bit of practice you should be able maintain a pretty stable temperature by adjusting the torch.

Nice tutorial. How do you know when to take the knife out? I see it was non magnetic but you kept heating after that

Hello!! I showed that it was non magnetic, but a piece that small cools quickly and I was worried (at the time) that in the amount of time it took to show that it was non-magnetic it would have possibly cooled below the threshold needed to properly harden. Looking back it would have been fine, and if it wasn't i would've normalized it a few times and tried again. :-)
