Damascus steel, also known as crucible steel,[1] was a type of forged steel which originated from the Levantine city of Damascus and was characterized by its unique and distinctive wavy pattern reminiscent of flowing water.
History
In the 9th century, the Viking Sigurd Styrbjornsson searched in Bulgar, East Europe for a sword made from Damascus steel.[1]
In the 15th and 16th centuries, the Spanish Brotherhood of Assassins utilized the metal to forge a number of weapons and armors for use against the Spanish Templars.[2]
In 1868, the British Assassins Evie and Jacob Frye purchased a kukri with a Damascus steel blade for £3000.[3]
