[QUOTE="Grey Panner, post: 673096, member: 15464"] Some of those old metalurgists were unbelieveably skillful. In India there is a centuries old iron pillar that never rusts. Modern science can't explain why. The Saracen leader Saladin was said to have a blade so sharp that he could throw a silk handkerchief up in the air and cut it in two as it floated to the ground. The same blade could also stand up to blows from the Crusaders' massive two-handed swords. In the Middle Ages, Spaniards could make rapiers so supple that the tip of the blade could be bent round to meet the handle. That German blade found by Goldfreak seems to be in the same wondrous category. It's the find of a lifetime. Grey Panner [/QUOTE]
