I already imagined that the upgradeable, craftable Silver Rapier (which I got early in my current game) would be broken; nice to see it spelled out... but of course, taking the (real-life) time to abuse this exploit seems rather silly, and it is probably a lot more satisfying to earn the various achievements one can get elsewhere. I can't imagine that it will feel like an accomplishment this way...
Still, yet another example of a game mechanic that was poorly executed and/or poorly tested. Maybe making recipes disappear after one (or a few) uses would be a natural solution, even if it doesn't really make sense.
edit: Right, I completely missed that this was mentioned right above this post. Shame on me.
