You'd get a lot more joints out of that ounce of flux and filler than
out of a similar quantity of filler rod and a jar of flux by the time
you clean up the joint. The stuff is really meant for furnace
brazing, though, where you have your parts rolling through on a belt
instead of guy with a torch doing onesies. I've used it for gun work
for putting sights and ramps on, good stuff. Just a mite spendy in
today's metal market.
In just a few minutes of searching, I found a blade that will
do the job for about 50% more than the Irwin blades HF
used to sell:

I guess I won't get into the saw blade repair business just yet.
Grok that. I'll be needing a new blade for my HF 12" CMS this year,
so I'll likely get one of those. It hurts to pay 1/3 the price of the
tool for a replacement blade, tho.
I looked up the absolute proper blade.
Stand away from sharp objects before you open the link
for the price.
Smelling salts at the ready!
