Replying to HELP!!! I need some insight about what to do with my broken edge

FightClub27:
So of course like every other park skier, I have a good amount of edge cracks on my skis but never really pay any attention to them. but about halfway through the season one of my cracks became a little more than just a crack and now its really scaring me! as you can see in the pictures, the edge is popping out, against the grain.

Things I've tried:
-Hammering it back in
-epoxy the edge back in and clamp for 2 days
-I tried to stop the bleeding by just cutting about an inch of the edge off and fill it in with something but ON3P has some wicked hard edges and i couldn't even dent the edge with a hack saw
-Praying

everything has failed and Ive run out of ideas. my next idea was pretty major so I figured I should ask someone more knowledgeable than myself first but i was thinking of cutting the base back and bending the edge back in toward the ski to bend it back into place, and then epoxy it again. Ive felt it catch on things and it definitely had the potential to get worse and pull out more edge

Any help? Thanks
