OK, so I have a Nicholson file the has about 1" broken off the end. I want to make a knife out of it.
I know these things are seriously hard, but I want to try and grind it anyway. I have no way to anneal it in a forge.
My question is; if I temper it in an oven at 450 for a few 1 hour sessions will I be able to grind it? I have some brand new Orange Blaze belts to throw at it.
Thanks,
