yeah, with 1085 you should be fine with oil anyways and it does reduce warping quite significantly. I invested in 15 liters of quenching oil some time back but I rarely use it because most of my steel is water-hardening, and it is really hard to get a proper hardness with oil with that steel. I used it for heat-treating some 12c27 sandvik which it is really good for.
