Hi! My name is DaQo'tah.
I'm a very new bladesmith. In fact, I am currently working on my very first knife forged from 52100 steel. I'm told that I need to heat treat my blade with an acetylene torch, quenching it in Texaco Type "A" quenching oil.
There is no Texaco gas station in my home town, so I'm wondering whereabouts does a person acquire this type of quenching oil?
Is there a website or a knifemakers supply that carries Texaco Type "A" quenching oil?
