In the city of Damascus, over a thousand years ago, the local blacksmiths were known for their unique technique of steel fabrication. They say this method produced the most beautiful swords in all the world. Damascus steel was recognized by the wavy light and dark pattern – a unique look. The process involved heating and folding the steel many times over in order to make the blade stronger and more ductile. Weapons made from Damascus steel were extremely superior to weapons formed from iron.
