We did this in high school back in the late forties. We heated to red hot for blacksmithing, reheating when needed. We heated to a creamy colour for annealing, just letting it cool in air. After shaping, we heated to creamy again and dipped it in carbon, repeating this several times. Then we tempered it, I think we chased the straw colour but I'm not certain of that.

I suggest you read this before you continue.

Once you have completed the reading, come back and ask more specific questions.

Best Regards,
