3 material pattern weld

Hello,

I've had success with welding L6 (bandsaw blade) and low carbon steel (pallet banding strap) together. Now I want to weld 01, L6 and low carbon together. I have the bandsaw and low carbon steel, while these are around .050" X1 1/4" I want to weld them to a piece of 1/8" X1 1/4" of 01 which I ordered from TKS. I've only ordered 1 foot of length which I want to configure to end up being the edge of the blade. I'll stack the thinner material on top of the 01, after the first weld, I'll fold it so the 01 is on the outside of the bundle, after that all fold should keep the 01 in the center, which should give me an edge of 01.

After the billet is complete I want to form the blade by stock removal so as to show more layers.

Do you think this is a logical sequence to work with?

I am using a Don Fogg style forge for my pattern welding.
