After hours of searching and several desperate attempts, I'm proud to finally have found a solution and a rather simple one at that.

After having executed the following commands:
　adb reboot bootloader
　fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img

Instead of executing "fastboot reboot", simply disconnect the USB cable and remove the battery for a while. After having reinserted the battery, power it on in the typical recovery fashion (holding down the "volume down" button and pushing the power button until the device begin its boot process, do not release the "volume down" button before you have entered CWM recovery) and you should enter CWM recovery.


EDIT: Apparently, you'll only be able to access CWM recovery on this sole instance. In any further attempts you would simply land at FTM ("volume down") or Android recovery ("volume up" or "adb reboot recovery"). If you want to enter CWM recovery again, you're going to have to redo the flashing process and remove the battery, as explained earlier in this post. Such is at least the case for me.

BOW DOWN TO THE SAVIOUR

This is a nice trick.it worked and I just need one boot in CMW to install super user for root access and I got it. Thank man. I will quote your solution in other threads. BTW which version CMW you tried. I heard v 6.x.x.x should also work on Blade2.

Also it would be nice idea if the fix posts should be linked in the main post of this tread.

Also A nice working custom rom for Blade 2 will be nice to know about.

To make the recovery sticky edit "install-recovery.sh" in /system/etc and supress all the lines or add a "#" before every line or simply delete it.

This script replaces your recovery at startup if it gets corrupted in case of problems
