    I think the answer will also depend on what you expect the metal to be able to withstand during the lifetime of the sword - are you going to be fighting with full force blade to blade contact or will it spend eternity sitting on a stand for example?

    I did a google sweep as suggested-2160 CBS is the best stuff BUT only if forged correctly. I asked Larry Smith about that and he did answer pretty fast. Apparently, it wasn't forged by a famous company. Chances are it came from a mass-producing factory in India. I guess that would make it like all the rest then.

    P.S. You mods get thanked way too easily!

    My snakes:
    0.1 Kenyan Sand Boa ~Nephthys~ (aka "Linky")

    In a better place:
    1.0 Pastel Western Hognose ~Charon~ 10/3/07-4/24/09

    If you need/want to know anything about Hognose snakes, just ask me.
