In conversation with a fellow the other day, he related how a local 'smith in his area creates/modifies flintlock frizzens by welding and shaping a piece of an old file. Seems genius to me, anybody heard of this?
I wonder if they heat it first, weld and shape, then quench? Could the length of file be worked and welded without heating first?
