Atlantia,
In this case it was easy to get a flat surface with Dremel 511 - I just followed the edge, and as the 511 is not a grinding wheel it was no problem. In Norman's case it could be a problem, but I think that if he takes it easy and does not press too hard, it will work
How many 511's I used? I don't remember, maybe about 6-8.
No I did not finish with anything, I only used the 511.

Norman,
The right side of the blade has one broad fuller, not very deep, and on the other side of the blade there are two very narrow fullers.
I don't know why they made blades like this, maybe to show the skill of the weapon smith, but I think these blades are as strong as any other blade.
