Like most argue no end to do.
Which is WRONG!!!
Do NOT Quench, let air cool and they will stay soft.

Quenching them in water does not harden them, George. They are not carbon steel.
I have always quenched them in water and they anneal perfectly as long as you don't let them get too hot.
Otherwise they are softened too much.
