taking a merkur slant apart?

anyone know if a merkur vintage slant will come apart. In other words will the barrel of the handle( tube) come off the top part of the handle that is attached to the guard base. I know that the top part of the handle does not come off the guard base, that looks like its pressed and flared. Will the knob come out the bottom of the barrel( tube)? I have a hair line crack in the tube that has to be fixed. It's getting bigger as I use it. One guy said to wrap a wire around it. i have a jeweler that will repair the hair line crack, if it comes apart. He will work through the inside of the tube. I dont want to force it. A gillette is easy, this isnt. thanks for any information.
