I'm going to carve my first knife out of a flat disc coulter from a 7 bottom plow. The heat won't ever get to be excessive as I work it up, as a lot of my work is with hand tools and a small 1x42 Kalamazoo belt sander.
This steel seems to be pretty tough stuff. Will it be necessary for me to send it off to heat treat before I finish up?
