In theory yes as long as the cross section of the material is maintained. Much better than a modern weld which is cast as the other weld is a solid state weld.

Awesome. Thank you for upload.
I got a question, 8:06 is that same strength fused as is a single piece that was NOT fused (welded)? Breaking resistance I meant ...
