Sounds good to me. Only time I seen a sword break it was Man at Arms on YouTube doing a replica of Andúril, they made Narsil and broke it to demo what happens if you don’t temper a blade.
I have no skill with swords and I’ve never even broken a knife. So a natural break would be pretty straight? Either horizontal or angled. I can just use an abrasive cutoff then and try to minimize the sharp spots.
Thanks for the advice gentleman. Hopefully the next time I’m on this forum I’m making something vs breaking it. This fall I was hoping to practice forge welding.
