Japanese Damascus Steel
Japanese Damascus Steel
Damascus Steel or Japanese Forged Steel? Which was better?
Which was superior for combat purposes? When were these sword-making methods brought into being? Was Damascus Steel or something similar ever used in the Russian or Byzantine regions? Thank you.
Damascus steel would have reached Russia, but the Byzantines would have no longer have been around.
I think the Japanese steel would be the better.
The steels were designed for different kinds of swordplay.
The Damascus was used thrusting and parring whereas the Japanese was designed for slicing.
