This is no great problem!
The temperature for laminating such a blade is around 750°C. Wootz will forged at ~800°C.
A modern gas furnace with a temperature control unit can hold the temperature exactly at the preset value.
You can check the sword forum to see modern examples and you will be surprised, how good they are!
