details on split unknot component.
May 24, 2013 at 10:45 comment added Ricardo Andrade @Ryan: Thank you very much for your answer. I did not remember to look in Adachi's book. Thank you for mentioning that reference and Milnor's notes. Finally, I am afraid I do not quite understand what you mean by "every 0-handle corresponds to creating a split unknot component in the level-sets, etc". Can you explain what you mean by a split unknot?
