I guess that in the absence of confirmation, then you have to let your conscience be your guide. I have had blades crack to where there was no doubt, and then I've had them appear to be cracked...but cannot be sure. For me, it's destructive testing time. Either way, all doubt is removed and I'm able to salvage something positive from it.....either way I'll know if it's definitely cracked or that I had made a good blade. If it was cracked, then I have the confidence that it was caught by me...and not a customer. If it is a good blade, then I also get confidence from that. It's a win-win situation for me.
