What do Ya'll do with ruined blades?
Say you've knocked a large enough chunk off a blade that it would have to be a 3/8 or smaller by the time you "fixed" it.
Or the blade has pits that go all the way through (daylight!!).
Here's what I've done with some of mine.

Here's a ceramic blade that my wife insisted on buying a set of. I told her they were brittle but she wanted them anyway. Well the first time she used the large one she broke the blade off the handle. Now she won't touch the other two. I kept the blade and using a set of cocobolo knife scales saved it.

So, what do ya'll think?
Have I broken some unwritten rules in salvaging blades that were unsalvagable (at least by me)?
