For what its worth when I used 1084 I also use aldo's (njsteelbarron) so now that I have a even heat oven I have looked online for HT instructions to get a starting point MOST say 1500 but I have found that the "sweet spot" is 1475 deg I always heat till 1475 let it soak for a few mins (in the oven I can let it soak and it will stay at that temp. if you let it soak in a forge most likely the longer you leave it the hoter its going to get) so I don't know how that would transfer from oven to forge, but just saying 1475 works for me now I know you cant get it to 1475 exactly by eye but that may be a starting point something to shoot for it works for me
