Wrong Steel Wrong Heat Treat--Help!
OK---I'm a moron. I had a piece of O-1 steel mixed in with my ATS-34 stock. Yep, you guessed it: I made two blades out of this stuff and sent if off to Texas Knife Company to be heat treated as ATS-34. They came back rather soft (duh!) but not warped. Any chance of salvaging these blades?
Thanks, Mike Curry

HI,
It is no problem with the O-1. You just did a rather expensive normalization. Now go ahead and harden it. Can't help you with the stainless, that is already hardened.
