One of the strongest swords is the Japanese katana, a sword that could cut dozens of carcasses before it loses its sharp edge. So I was thinking omg these Japanese people have always been the kings of industry.
Despite this incontestable reputation that this sword had, it fears only the Sultan of swords, the Damascus sword. I was quit astonished when I heard about this sword. It is a legendary sword, the gift of Allah to clean the crusaders from our lands lots of years ago. This sword could cut through the crusaders swords, and with adequate thrust it can cut through a rock, and it would stay as sharp as ever.
It was first forged by a guy dwelling Damascus, his name was Al-Dimashqi. The technique of forging such a sword was kept as secret for certain workmen in Damascus, but by the 18 centaury the technique was lost. Like the pride imbedded into such a sword refused to stay in our hands, until we value pride more than our lives again (Allah is the source of such pride for sure).
Despite all these years, the sword still retains much of its legendary fascinating magic, not only in terms of strength, but in its whole manufacturing process. They discovered that this piece of art contains carbon nanotubes and nanowires which indicate that the process of forging this sword had taken into consideration the nano-scale structures, which can be quit astonishing because it is something that started a couple of decades from our current time. And by that I really do not want to imagine what kinds of sciences were wasted into Bagdad’s rivers in the Mongolians saga.
The process is not discovered yet despite the going on trials to rediscover it. It may be discovered soon though, and they are expecting to be able to start producing unbelievable sharp steels, probably sharper and harder than the nitrated steels, that come second to diamond in hardness.
Until we have this type of superiority again I will leave you to please your eyes with the sight of our legendary lost legacy. For source Click here Plz. And here too!
