I just received my Evenheat KF27 and am excited to start finishing the many blades I have profiled and ground. Since I have made several dozen each of the same steel from the same supplier I would like to do as many as possible at the same time. From what I can learn you have some time ( a few seconds from what I've read) to get from the kiln to the quenchant. The first batch of blades that I want to work on are 1095 from Admiral Steel. If I heat up 6 blades at once will my quench on the last blade be effected by the time it sat in the kiln waiting it's turn? On a side note this kiln is larger than I was envisioning, I went with the extra length since the cost difference above the smaller models was negligible compared to the overall cost of the kiln. If anyone is interested I've posted some pictures of the kiln in it's as delivered condition (which was undamaged and unmarred) in another thread.
