    Heat treating files.

    I'm new here. I saw a video on making knives from files. What temp do you "cook 'em" at and for how long to soften them up? Obviously a dedicated heat treat oven would be best but at this point cash is not flowing freely. The kitchen oven might have to do for now. Any help would be appreciated.
