I am rather puzzled. ‘Air’ bubbles, what is that, and how do you work your way around them? It is the first time I have ever heard about it.
The cracks are something interesting. I know of course that they appeared; most of the collectors know this, but why? One would think that when a blade is heated and worked on cracks would disappear, that the forging would make the blade more homogeneous, so why are the cracks still there?
