Talk to me about the best ways to correct bent knives, from accute bends at the tip, to gentle curves along the spine, to twists, etc. I've come across a couple bent tips for customers that I can usually get nearly true again by covering in a towel, and gently using a ballpen hammer on a vice base (or other hard surface). Bigger gentle curves along the spine, and twests are somethings I'm hesistant to touch right now. I don't have a tempering oven (although I have a kitchen oven), and many of the knives I encounter have Western handles, so removing those handles is PIA. Not sure if such an option with ovens even exists, but if so, I might not be able to make it work. Thanks for the input. Direct me to another thread if there's one indentical.
