A flattened mesh would be fine for armor, but how would a flattened mesh form and retain a superior keen edge? It must be solid at some point. There's no need for smelting otherwise.
Simple: Make the edge of the axe or whatever into a cutting plane, and make the rest into a sort of meshy thing. This would help the potential issues associated with friction, too--wires have less surface area than a flat surface.

Good point. I guess we would need to go back to the old "splitting bolt stacks and melting down the individual bolts" method then. :P
Or you could just use coins, since those still only need 1 wafer to make.
Weird.
