To be a Sikh is to learn and to learn is to grow!

Over the last 25 years, I’ve tested numerous blades attributed to renowned Persian swordsmiths such as Assadullah and Kalb Ali as well as others, including several with exceptional provenance. While some were undoubtedly impressive works, a significant number displayed inclusions and graphitisation consistent with poorly processed / forged wootz steel. Based on that experience, I would question whether all blades bearing these celebrated names truly warrant the legendary reputation often attached to them.

What do you think? Comment below.

I will be sharing metulurgical and scientific data on this topic in upcoming videos. I will also be sharing data on tracing indian steel being traded into ancient Persia.
