The name derives from the Syrian city of Damascus, which is considered an ancient stronghold and the origin of Damascus steel production. Typically, a hard, high-carbon steel and a soft, low-carbon steel are joined by repeated welding and folding using forging. The high-carbon steel provides greater hardness, better hardenability, and longer edge retention, while the softer steel gives the blade greater elasticity and increased resistance to breaking. With this technology, which developed in a time of poor and changing steel qualities, the positive properties of different steels can be combined. Due to the different colors with different carbon contents, stunning patterns of alternating layers are created, such as the so-called \u003ci\u003etwist Damascus\u003c\/i\u003e or \u003ci\u003erose Damascus\u003c\/i\u003e . Because of these patterns, Damascus swords from the Middle Ages were said to have an inherent magic. The Edda describes a Damascene sword as a bloody worm, a poisonous snake.  \u003cbr\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003eTienda Medieval,\u003c\/strong\u003e we have thousands of medieval and other period products.
