But I will say that the info you can get from alpha knife supply or midwest knife maker will give you a good quality heat treat, and a great starting point to experiment from and figure out what works best for you.

Good luck
This is nonsense. I don't do stainless, so I don't care about a heat treat for elmax, but this kind of attitude just plain sucks.
