Roman Iron Sword Grinding
#1
Did the Romans of the 200 BC to 100 AD time period have the technological know-how and resources to grind down a sword? What I mean, is that if they were to find a sword who's blade tip had broken off, could a smith grind down the entirety of the blade to a more proportional but slightly shorter and thinner design, but with the same cross section and distal taper?
