This weekend as I was doing some HT (with 0-1).I decided I was going to do all with an edge quench.Well as I was laying/propping one blade on it edge to reach for another it feel sideways into the oil.Well i have one warped blade (my first) and was wondering how to straighten.Do I need to anneal and then straighten or .....

All help will be appreciated!
NO IT WASN"T THE FUSION BLADE

I get it up to around 400 degrees, clamp in a vise and you can get it most of the time. good luck.

thanks Jason,
the blade hasn't been finished so i was thinking of annealing,straightening,and re-HT.

Mike,
If you can h/t over, then do it.
I wouldn't say that if it were s/s.
carbon steel should be OK.
Soften, straighten, and re harden.
That's the best way to do it right.

I must have "jinxed" you when I asked you about it this weekend:)

Mark,
It was bound to happen sooner or later.:) I am sure there will be more to come.
