Kevin, I have a digitally controlled kiln i turned into an oven. i did 1 hour at 350 should i repeat 350* will i lower the hardness.. also i do not quench in water after tempering, i let the blade air cool.. is there any benefit in quenching after tempering?

I get lots of scale when i heat treat O1 and 1084. I have been thinking about injecting CO2 into my kiln while i am heat treating the steel. I have a digital controller on my kiln and it should regulate the temp just fine.. would this help with scale? just thinking out loud... is this a bad idea?
