this is the sharpest sword in the world



Orang2 certainly a lot of thought if the sharpest sword in the world is the samurai of Japan, it turns out you were wrong eiits sharpest sword is the sword of Damascus (Damascus Sword) ..
The following is a quick introduction:



Damascus sword is very powerful but still flexible enough to bend to the tip of his sword hilt. The sword is also very sharp sword that can cut Europe easily, is even said to be able to cut a piece of silk that was dropped to the ground. Characteristic Damascus Sword is the Pattern / Pattern Watermarks on the surface, similar to Keris Indonesia / Japan Sword (But Watermarks on Steel Damascus not because of technical metal folds).




Research conducted by a group of scientists from the University of Dresden, reveals an extraordinary secret-the presence of carbon nanotubes. Apparently without realizing it, this sword makers use when forging swords nanotechnologies. Unfortunately, this sword-making technique disappeared in the 18th century.


Supplement:
Nanotechnology involves the development of technology in the nanometer scale, usually 0.1 to 100 nm (nanometer equals one thousandth of a micrometer or one millionth of a millimeter). The term is sometimes applied to a very small technology. Also very broad in scope, can be extended to various fields such as medicine, robotics, physics, etc.. While carbon nanotubes are cylindrical carbon bond with a diameter of 4 nanometers (1 nano = 1/1.000.000.000).

Material used is called wootz steel, rich in carbon nanotubes. This material he imported from India, and the manufacture of damascus sword suspended due to exhaustion of this material.

Legendary Damascus steel is the material of steel having superplastic properties (the ability to undergo permanent deformation without cracking up to 1000%).

With the unique properties of Damascus steel is widely used as a material for making swords and guns. According to the myth that guns are made ​​using Damascus Steel will never dull or broken. Besides having superplastic properties of Damascus steel also has the characteristic that is the pattern of water (watermarking) on its surface.

Damascus steel was first created in India, and later progressed to Syria. Damascus own name given by Western nations involved in the Crusades and find weapons made ​​from Damascus steel in Damascus, Syria.

Damascus swords once used by the Muslim leader Salahuddin al-Ayyubi the Third Crusade against Christian soldiers in Richard the Lionheart led .. Both leaders
mutual respect. The two leaders who later became a legend, who want to see just a movie Kingdom of Heaven (2005)
