The present invention is directed to a turbomachinery blade and a method of fabricating the turbomachinery blade. The turbomachinery blade comprises a plurality of blade segments, and the plurality of the blade segments are separate from one another at least partially in an axial direction forming radial seams between adjacent blade segments. The method comprises forming a plurality of blade segments which are separate from one another at least partially in an axial direction; and forming radial seams between adjacent blade segments.
