In response to the or original video of “wootz” steel and the blades referenced in that video
.

My 700ish year old Tulwar.

Yes, the knuckle bow is missing, close inspection can see where it broke off and was filed down.

No it doesn’t compare to modern steel.

But it is certainly not without its own merits!

For instance
.

My swing sucked, which resulted in the blade being put under excessive stress!

But it still came back to true and even though it chopped through bone (simulate) it was barely dulled!

There’s no way to know if my blade is wootz steel without scientific study, that I am not gonna pay for
.

What I do know is that it IS old, and it is wicked sharp, lightweight, and relatively durable.

I am absolutely certain if I practice my stroke, I could chop heads with this weapon.

How will that perform anything like an ancient sword?

Back in the day when that 3 foot long, inch and a quarter wide yet only 1.7lb blade was forged, it certainly wasn’t forged for cutting cheese!

Your little rat sticker doesn’t need to flex,
 it’s not built for it
 and is too small anyway.

So bragging that it’s made of honestly inferior steel that is comparable to ancient sword steel is questionable at best!

But I guess I shouldn’t be surprised coming from you.

SWEETS, listen up! Time to learn you – again!

Rest assured, no ancient steel in this world has anything on our modern steel. We can forge steel in so many better ways today than they could and for a thousand different purposes.

The smiths go back in time for the love and passion of their trade, for the pure joy of it. You’re not a smart, creative person like we are, Willie. You’re a narrow minded dolt, incapable of understanding.

Never said my 1075 was better than that floppy, sloppy, busted up hunk o’ turd of yours that you don’t even know how to swing in the first place. I said it was a good bargain and it could be concealed, whereas yours is but a used up, broken collectors item that should be preserved – before your clumsy little hands bust it.

You’re no swordsman, Sweet Willie B! You missed your stroke!

I don’t collect knives for hanging on the wall, Willie B. I use them out in the field, camping, hunting, fishing, survival and combat training, etc.

You haven’t figured out how to use yours yet.

Stick that thing up your crack!

You couldn’t chop a stalk of celery.

Willie Boy.

The B stands for “B#tch”.

Here’s to your butter knife Will B#tch.

Did I get under your skin poor little teddy?

EAD.

Nobody cares about your modern steel pig sticker that you didn’t even post in your OP.

Wanna know why?

Because everybody has a modern steel pig sticker!

You’re just mad because I actually have a piece of history that neither of your living gods can claim as their own! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Go hump a flagpole, Will B#tch.

Do you find that exciting?

Asking for a friend.

No apologies or sympathies, but I forget you’re permanently flaccid. Gone limp for life.

Sucks to be Will B#tch.

Enough of you, fool. G’bye.
