I am having some problems with my plate quenching. I am afraid I am not getting maximum hardness like I was from oil quenching. I just received a new Evenheat kiln And began using aluminum plates For quenching because it was necessary to wrap my knives in steel pouches during heat treat. I was told oil quench could not be done in pouches. Anyone attempted using oil while the blades are in pouches or alternatively using a mixture of quench plates and oil? I would like to make a vise for the plates where I can dip the entire thing in oil after it is clamped down.
