Forging This Beautifully Intricate Sword Is So Damn Impressive

Do you remember the Green Destiny sword from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I didn’t. But that damascus steel blade finished with jade is so damn gorgeous and stunningly detailed that after seeing the guys at Baltimore Knife and Sword make it, I don’t think I’ll ever forget it again. The whole build process is so intensive. From how they alternate and stack different metals to folding the metal on top of each other to etching out the design and carving the jade and then adding the finishing touches, it’s one of the most beautifully intricate swords they’ve ever made.
