Secrets of the Viking Sword

[Bud]

When I think about it Thomas it would seem that old knives and swords simply could not be even close to modern knives and swords. I've heard since i was born about the quality of Samurai stuff but I've always wondered just how good it could be when compared to methods and steels produced even the 1800's. All these old folks did a marvelous job in making what they made in consideration of what they had to work with but compared to modern day stuff, I really wonder if they compare at all.

Thanks so much for your history lessons Thomas. I find all of it very interesting.
