"Dragon Well Forge is the most famous in all China. Dragon Well, or Longquan, is named after seven natural wells in the mountains of Zhejiang, China, where the forge is located. Legend attributes its legacy to China's legendary swordmaker, Ou Yezi, over twenty-six centuries ago. He struck his weapons with his signature "seven star" mark for these seven Dragon wells, often imitated but never duplicated. Today, Ou Yezi's legacy is still preserved among the craftsmen of Dragon Well Forge. Blades are made the old fashioned way, meticulously folding and hammering the steel by hand to create distinctively tempered blades that possess maximum strength and flexibility. Dragon Well spring steel is very flexible, yet will return to true. Dragon Well combat steel is unbendable, sturdy enough to penetrate the thickest of armor. "
