Admanfrd Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I was browsing some forums the other day, looking for what folding steel actually does and came upon a funny comment. Although I cant find the link, I remember the post word for word. So, here it is. "Folding the steel makes the blade stronger and sharper as well as making the blade lighter. Folding makes the blade lighter by trapping oxygen in between the layers to make it less dense." I laughed a bit at "makes it sharper", but I was dying when he said that "it makes the blade lighter by trapping oxygen in between the layers!" If there was oxygen in between the layers, you are doing something VERY wrong. Anyways, though someone might enjoy this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Special Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 You want a fun variant on this theme, try reading about korean fan death. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_death My korean language teacher at DLI used to swear that they'd chop up the air too fine to breathe oxygen and you'd asphixiate.

Admanfrd Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 If anything, air in between the layers would make it heavier XD Glad others got a laugh from this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
