So, pulling ring shank nails it hard on the cutter. Ant whey I can weld, and grind it back to shaper? Will the weld be too soft? Poor picture, sorry.

Hell, I one time welded up all the tappets on an old 63 Olds and ground them to save a buck. Drove that car for another 6 years, ran like a champ...

Buy some new ones ya cheap skate! My dad exactly. He will spend half a day screwing around welding some that can be replaced for $20. One day my jacket caught the screen door latch, and it broke inside. I was going to my girlfriends house, so I told I'd grab one at the hardware. No we can fix it, quick. Took it off, drilled out the rivets, Cleaned up the pot metal parts, and started welding. With a stick welder. That didn't go easy. 3 or 4 hours later, after we peened the last rivet. I still stopped at the hardware store. A complete unit, new. $13. Of course the welded pot metal didn't hold up, within a year, I bought a new latch.

You're going to have to grind them anyway....just grind it back and save a step.
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

I've ground, filed, ground down the stop, all sorts of things.
I bought a pair from Harbor Freight, never again, the handles bend.

I’d figured the edges would be tempered and quenched. Welding would remove that and make soft.
