Please remember this procedure it not one to be taken on by anyone who is not an accomplished welder in both methods that I have mentioned and can easily result in damaging the blade even more or its complete ruin if not done properly. Thank you all for your kind words in reference to my work.

WOW!
I am familiar with the procedures you described but I still couldn't fathom that you can achieve this level of precision. What you did is way beyond norm in the craft and, in my oppinion goes more in the field of art.
Thank you very much for sharing with us the secrets of your "magic"!!!
