Use a bar of soap. It smells great and dissipates the heat for tool steel without fracturing the microcrystalline structure (as if you dipped it in water to quench). In a pinch, in the field, sand also works.

Hi Blacksmiths, I’ve been a blacksmith for over 10 years. I also shoe horses. I am a certified structural steel welder; and a newbie to manual machining. I joined this forum because I need to communicate with like minded individuals that understand the value in handmade items. My current blacksmithing interests are in making hand tools for different crafts and industries. Thank you! CatalystForge
