Can this be saved?

I'm attemping at making a sword. It is my first blade ever (I know a dagger would be easier, but I never did chose anything for how easy it was).

It was a spring. I softned and carburised it. It is quite maleable and even holds a semblance of an edge. My fear is that I ground down too much at the sides halfway up its lenght. Trying to fix a mistake I kept going from one side to the other in order to match them. Now it has this weird thin section.

The blade is:

Blade 89,5cm

Full lenght: 114,4cm

Width at base: 5cm

Width before the tip: 3cm

Width at the problem area: 3cm

Thickness: around 5mm all along it. It narrows to 4mm ate the tip
