To anneal or not to anneal
I am new to knife making. I just picked up an antique cross cut saw with the idea that I would make a few knives from the blade. Based on what I’ve read l, I am working with the assumption that this is likely a high carbon steel. Does the steel typical of these types of old sol blades need to be annealed before beveling the knife and drilling holes for the scales?
