Built for Bladesmiths Who Want Heat Treat Under Their Own Roof
The Hot Shot Oven was designed with input from blacksmiths and knife makers to give you precise, repeatable heat treat results in your own shop. Run a single blade or a batch — your shop, your schedule, no outsourcing required.The 10"Dx6"Wx6"H interior chamber gives you enough room to run multiple blades at once or a single larger piece, making each firing count.
It reaches 2000°F, which covers the heat treat range for the vast majority of knife steels — carbon, tool steels, and most stainless.
Every Hot Shot oven is built in West Bend, Wisconsin and ships with the brand's patent-pending Cool-to-Touch Technology — the exterior stays safe to handle even at full temperature, thanks to a fan-cooled stainless steel core inside a powder-coated shell. Kanthal A1 heating elements, a Type K thermocouple, and a solid-state relay come standard.

Full operator manual, a 3 year limited warranty through Hot Shot, and free freight shipping to the US Lower 48.
