    Default cracked during restore

    Whilst doing some hand sanding on my shumate deluxe project the sudden urge to piss (probably from the 4 mountain dews i had earlier in the day) hit me. Came back into the living room to find my 3 year old with a screw driver in 1 hand and my now cracked shumate in the other. The crack is only 1/2inch in from the toe. But its a bad all the way through and ya trying not to cry a little.Just curious as to what i should do. Options being toss the blade and keep the faux tortoise scales as the seem to be in a useable state. Or shorten the over length of the razor. Any thoughts?If i end up keeping it and trying to shorten should i1) dermel with cutting wheel sitting on a block of ice to keep it cool?2) slowly use a file to take off the toe where the crack is starting at the spine?Any advice and thoughts appreciated.
