I do similar as Jim mentions. I know some that grind the profile and send off to heat treat. The comment being that because it is harder an oops doesn't ruin the blank as quickly. OTOH, it will use more abrasive belts. YMMV. I like the steel in easy working condition for the plunge and bevel cuts, easier for me to stay in the groove.
