[QUOTE="YukonKnife, post: 3750998, member: 44947"] It could be either a good quality or a low grade Damascus steel, possibly made in Pakistan or India, possibly elsewhere. The original Wootz Damascus steel got it's great qualities of strength, hardness, elasticity, and toughness because the ancient makers were forging and forming carbon nanotubes and diamondoid wires into the iron matrix, either knowingly or unknowingly, when they used certain carbon-based leaves and organic materials in the forging process. This gave the blades flexible, elastic, and tough bodies with diamond-hard edges that were even able to self heal from being battered in metal on metal battles. [/QUOTE]
