During Middle Ages Damascus steel was used to make swords and the art of making Damascus steel was considered as a secret. Then a time came when the process for making the original Damascus steel was lost. But it emerged again though modern-day Damascus knives are not made in the same way as the medieval Damascus blades. The reasons for this are obvious, as no one knows exactly how those blades were made.
