Anneal ? yes or no

I feel I've made enough knives from files and leaf spring to start getting serious but now confused by a Walter Sorrels video . He makes a stock removal bush craft with 440c without annealing ... and also says it's good for the beginner doing stock removal but after reading comments from other experienced knife makers they claim it is a very difficult metal to temper etc... mainly my Q is do I need to anneal the steel bars sent from supplier ? I have 6 ft of 440c 3/16 x 1 1/2 .
