Blade Straightening

I have re-straightened many blades and have never snapped one .The best thing I have found to do is use a dead-blow hammer lay the blade against ahard and flat surface and hit it with as little force as possible.Generally this doesnt work too well on springy blades and I have often resorted to leaving them alone just to be on the safe side.
Fredricos vice method would work as well but I would be very gentle.....
