If both the cable and the ferrule were steel, I wouldn't be afraid to try
and weld the end of cable to the end of the ferrule.  Crimp it as good as
you could first, then if you cut the cable flush with or leave it a little
past the end of the ferrule then zap it with the welder, cable end to
ferrule end.  I don't think you would weaken anything that way, just backing
up your crimp?
