I wish i had a context for this. But I really dont.

I was all ready to “um, actually” this, but, um, actually there’s about 3-4 grams of iron in a person, which x400 is 1.2-1.6kg, which is a smallish but not unreasonable sword. So. Math checks out.

maxknightley

How would you extract the iron, though? The more practical solution would be to kill a mere hundred men, then mix 1 part blood with 3 parts standard molten iron, imo. Cheaper and faster, while still retaining the edge that only evil magic can give you.

Or, you could just make the sword of iron, and then use the blood to temper the blade.

1.2 to 1.6 kilograms is a perfectly reasonable large sword. Your average longsword was 1.1–1.8 kg and I don’t even remember if that’s including the weight of the hilt, guard, and pommel or just the blade. Your more classic “knight sword” was a mere 1.1 kilograms on average; the blood of 400 men is more than enough.

This is using the comparatively crappy metallurgy of medieval Europe and their meh iron swords. Move east to, say, contemporary Iran and make a scimitar using high carbon steel (~2%) for a .75 kilogram blade and you only need the blood of about 225 men.

So putting my thoughts in on this… because how could I not.

So you’ve exsanguinated your 400 guys to get the iron for your sword. Cool. But now you have 400 bodies lying around.

Why not put those to good use and cremate them. Use the carbon from those 400 bodies (you won’t need all of them) and now you can make a nice mid-high carbon steel sword.

Now you have a sword forged with the blood of your enemies AND strengthened with their bones.

@gaeth this is pursuant to your tangent yesterday about making abyssal weaponry

Training Rey

Luke: Rey while I understand the desire to experiment and outdo Kylo Ren could you perhaps stick to a lightsaber staff? A lightsbaer trident is just .....wrong

Luke:Rey when I told you about my training with Master Yoda I did not mean that you should do the same things. Could you please let me down before I break a hip. I am not a young man anymore

Luke: While I am both proud and very disturbed that you managed to discover Force Lightning on your own could you please not use it to cook sausages? We have a perfectly good fire

Luke: While I understand your anger at the Senator after the way he insulted Leia you cannot use the Force to make him punch himself and then gleefully ask " Why are you punching yourself" This is not how a Jedi is supposed to act

Luke: I agree that it's effective but in an honorable duel a Jedi is supposed to use The Force and their lightsaber to defeat their opponent not land mines

Luke: I DON'T CARE IF YOU THINK THEY ARE ADORABLE! SPIDERS ARE NOT SUITABLE PETS REY! OH GOD THEY ARE IN MY ROBES. GET THEM AWAY FROM ME

Luke: Rey we are facing a Sith Lord! Now is not the time to make fun of Supreme Leader Snoke's name. Rey stop laughing
