Wonder if them makers are raking it in by the thousands.Originally posted by the Bear:they are still used as weapons..
and there are still people who make them.. takes months from raw ore..
the master swordsmith will go pick out the smelted iron and then go back to his forge to treat the iron with correct amounts of carbon to make 2 types of steel... one for the cutting edge which is hard and brittle, the other is softer for the strength so that the sword doesn't shatter...
it's forged straight until it is tempered.. the cutting edge shrinks less than the softer blunt side, giving it the identifying curve
it's then sent to be sharpened and the polisher who painstakingly polishes it by hand... each of his polishing stone is worth thousands too
