Cut out the kink and re-weld it? A small loss of length shouldn't matter
on most bandsaws...

Sounds reasonable anyway.

I've tried tapping out a kink in a bandsaw blade. It was better
than with the kink in it, but self-destructed very quickly anyway. I'd
say your best bet would be to snap it off in about 6" pieces, glue a
couple of pieces of wood on each side as handles, and make a whole bunch
of little saws. Or, you can grind them into "custom" carving knives, of
various shapes.
