well, S37 can be carburised
you don`t need an oven for the heat treating of long blades. It can all be done in a (quite long) fire, but this needs some practise. Or in a simple longish oven built of clay. I remember a nice video on youtube showing the traditional heat treating of a katana in such an oven.
Nevertheless, a very nice weapon
