Is there an accepted date for the 'loss' of wootz manufacture in India?
Wiki claims: The techniques for its making died out around 1700 after the principal sources of special ores needed for its production were depleted. But is there an accepted terminal date for wootz blades? Seems to be plenty of late 18th century looking Katars/daggers and swords with wootz blades? |
