A freezing treatment - may be used between the first and second tempers. Freezing treatments help to attain maximum hardenability and must always be
tecnica
So the treatment after machining would be:
tecnica
Hardness check: file should be sliding over the edge wo getting grip
tecnica
When tempering at 400-750?F (200-400?C), freezing treatments may be necessary to minimize retained austenite.
tecnica
Now since you didn't forge or fire weld it, meaning you do stock removal only, you can expect the steel to be annealed correctly.
tecnica
tempers. A freezing treatment may be added between tempers.

NOTE: For optimum stress relieving, CPM S30V may be tempered at 1000-1025?F (540-550?C). Tempering in this range may result in a slight decrease in
