Cool, the bottom dagger was one of two found in Tutankhamun's tomb and is made of iron from a meteorite



They used a new technique to analyze the composition without damaging the blade. It contains nickel and cobalt, just like the meteorite discovered near the Kharga Oasis. The dagger's metal likely came from the same meteor shower.

yeah, they said it always freaked them out that the egyptians didn't really do iron. they didn't have a deposit near them. then on top of that the dagger didn't rust like most normal iron does. cool to find a twist to an old story like this.

I kinda like bronze because you can just melt it down if the weapon gets messed up and re-cast it

Why is this Pharaoh not alive!
Meteorite daggers automatically come with life drain!

It's not as simple

For the better quality ones at least, pretty sure

The more you reforge Iron the stronger it gets. And yes, it is rather simple.

Bethesda dismissing the audience that made them popular to begin with using biased research and incorrect statistics. I've never pirated or considered pirating a Bethesda game before, but I can safely say they will never be getting another penny from me as long as I live. *** them and their *** attitude towards modders and the amazing community that has helped to bring them where they are today.

Yep, and NexusMods has 10x as many mods but we can't include third party data or the community that supports us the most.

Wonders if this is blow back for that one user putting Far Harbor up as a mod before it was identified and removed.

The more you reforge Iron the stronger it gets. And yes, it is rather simple.

At least with a steel sword you need to stack the metal pieces and heat them up again and restart the whole forging process

With a bronze blade you can melt it down and recast it (which requires less heat)

Not sure what you mean by reforging iron to make it stronger, you need to add a certain amount of carbon (and then quenching and tempering) to make it hard and flexible instead of soft (or hard and brittle without tempering)

I simply mean melting down an iron sword and making another would take out more imperfections from the first blade and the second reforged sword would be stronger.

A brass sword is a brass sword, no matter how many times you melt it down and reforge a blade.

If you just use iron, you would be better making a thick rod to beat someone with than trying to sharped something that will not hold an edge.
