I'm confused about using a freezer at the end of heat treating. I've been using stainless almost exclusively lately, but I'm starting to use more high carbon (1095, 5160) since I'm hoping to start making damascus soon. For carbon steel I've been doing the triple edge quench in "Goddard's Goop" and the triple temper. What will putting the blades in the freezer after tempering do to improve the knife?I look forward to any help or opinions.
