ok, this is coming from someone who has no experience with metal-working, at all...

so, let's say that I have two blades that I think would be much better off being... shorter.

What is the best way I could accomplish that?

What are you using them for? What are they made out of?

If the answers are 'fighting/fencing' and 'stainless steel' just get new ones.

"The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone. People have hardly time nowadays to speak even on the broad ocean, where news is news, and as for a salute of guns, they cannot afford the powder. There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning."

- Capt. Joshua Slocum

o.O

You wound me, Sir!

I am far from an expert on anything but I don`t waste my time with stainless.

Both are Windlass products. One is a rapier that I`m considering cutting down to a small sword.

the other is a single edged fanatsy thing that has a skull pommel and crossbones quillions. If it were shorter, it would make a passable cutlass.
