You know, the kind of swords that were everything like what we expect from katana in modern popculture. With the small difference that we have no more reason to believe that katana actually were any good.

The damascus steel wikipedia page was actually pretty interesting. I didn't even know superplasticity was a real word.

Yeah I thought he was basing it on Damascus steel given the ripples in the metal and all.


Actually, Ulfberhts are made from crucible steel and Damascus steel is also a type of crucible steel, so they are similar in that regard.

The documentary is probably this one:


That documentary was really cool.

I was really looking forward to seeing them put it on a hilt and all... But nope :-(

Because a fantasy writer who picks a name based on another, more illustrious fantasy writer, is intentionally trying to get people to mix it up, reap positive associations.

Pretty sure he didnt choose his name :o

Well, technically he did. He was born George R. Martin and added the second R. at age 13.

But the larger point is that an author gets to call themselves whatever they want. Even if they stick with their legal name, there's quite a bit of flexibility. Middle names can be used or omitted as desired, abbreviated or kept at full length. Hell, they can even be used as first names.

There's obviously an intentionality to Martin's choice of moniker; and there's nothing wrong with that. The guy is pretty open about trying to carry on Tolkien's legacy in the face of all watered-down nonsense floating about.

The next person who feels the need to address an unrealistic scene in a fantasy show should refrain from posting. Yes, Game of Thrones is a very realistic fantasy series and is better for it, but they will take liberties to make the editing easier or to speed things along.

Unless of course we are talking about the ninja zombies in twd, because those are just so suspect in a zombie series.

Look, I've got no problem with Melisandre's vagina smoke monster baby... BUT how did it know where to go to find Renly? She never tells it what to do, so it just knows? Yeah right.

Pls stop using that word for a tale with dragons and magic and ice zombies and what not.
