Any place you get the powder...solder will not flow there. It's a bit of a double edged sword in that you must be very careful with it.....get a few grains in the blade/guard joint, and the solder will not flow there.....which means taking things apart (which is a real pain if you got a partial solder job), cleaning, and trying again.

Just one more reason that I find it simpler and easier to just make sure the guard fit is as tight as possible, and forego the solder.
