Its not difficult to temper steel, all you need in a gas flame. Heat it to about 250C and watch as it goes through different colours (first yellow through to blue). If you stop when its yellow the steel will be very hard but brittle, and blue equals soft and springy. Afterwards just quench it in cold water. Easier said than done though.........
