I've been doing a lot of reading behind the science of heat treating metals. In fact, I find the subject fascinating.
My problem however, is where the "rubber meets the road" in Knife Making. Everywhere I look I find somewhat different advise on annealing, hardening and tempering metals like 440C, NitroV, CPM154 and AEB-L.
Is there a one-stop resource, like a book or website which would give me generally accepted steps for annealing, hardening and tempering? Any info would be helpful.
