Zane Schenk was born into a family of knifemakers and what was a hobby has become a passion and even a business. Along with a small group metalworkers in the United States, they've given birth to a renaissance in the manufacture of Damascus Steel.

In this talk, Zane talks about the history of this particular type of steel-making, how the technology disappeared from the earth for a period of time, and how it has come back with a fervor and new astounding artistic creations are being made every day.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
