Hi I'm new to this!!

Hi

I have been interested in bushcraft for years an am about to embark on making my first knife blade.


I realise this has probably been asked a hundred times but...

I have access to a decent fire pit type BBQ, domestic oven, blow torch and oil.
What is the best way to harden O-1 steel using a BBQ!

Thanks

Nick
