Roman Iron Sword Grinding
#2
ähm... why not???
they had the technology to grind a proper blade shape out of a forged blank... where is the difference? despite the fact that in most known blade constructions of that timeframe there would be no hard steel "behind" a broken-off tip. but such repaired / shortened swords are well-known from the 3rd century ad
