Wd40 just like wax works really well

Yeah, man! You can't beat these leg vises! Blacksmiths used them because you can forge on them and not break them. The more traditional vises hold things better and more accurately, but these are great for heavy work. Not all steel heat treats. Mild steel really doesn't harden due to low carbon content. Same with 306/316 stainless. There is case hardening that can be done, but it is an intensive process. The steel I used was 5160, which is a higher carbon alloy with chromium and a few other goodies that make a tough durable steel. I also use it in my knife making. Great steel. You can buy a new one from companies like kanca, but they are very expensive and definitely not as cool as the old iron!
