Hi sojourn88,
Don't say until I like so pro la. It's nothing much, really.
Here's the video from a guy who offers insane knife pumping services. Much of his works are top end Hinderers.

It takes a bit of trial an error, especially with gas stoves as it's hard to get an even heating. I have seen and heard of people using oven with great results, mainly because, like electric stoves, the heat distribution is even.
A general rule of thumb is that stainless 304 will start changing color at 290 degrees celcius in air. It will bronze at around 340 and blue at 450 and above. I've considered investing in an infrared gun to get more consistent results.
I don't think I can make a video as I am camera shy, but maybe a concise summary of what I did will be possible the next time I attempt this.
As of now, I'm more inclined towards using a gas stove as the heating curve is more predictable, unlike my electrical stove. I may consider using the oven in my school. That's 600 degrees of yummy heat.
