[crw-talk] warped knife blade fix??

[Egan, Richard]

Was there some force applied to it while it was stored?
Applying an opposite force may straighten it. I am guessing it will need heating. I bet a metallurgist could tell you.

Hi everyone,

I am working on restoring my parents wedding knife for use for my nephew's wedding.  After all of this time, it has developed a warp in the blade.  Any ideas on how to fix this?

It is forged stainless steel and the blade is about 13 inches long.

Kris
