There are also chemical processes that create Case Hardening...

Shiloh Sharps uses a chem process unless you order Bone Charcoal hardening
CPA who recreates the 44.5 Stevens uses chemical to get the Stevens case look.
The Japanese Parker's for Winchester used Chemical..

Then there is the cheapo way and that is to use an Acetylene Torch to to flame heat...and get the effect, but that has greenish tones..

Case is skin deep and leaving it out in the sun will cause it to fade..
