Hello,
I have a question regarding a sword that was delivered yesterday. I'll be up front,I don't know a lot about metal.
It's 1095 carbon steel-clay tempered.
I notice that there were some dots on the blade. I'm not sure if it's pitting or someone told me that if it's chromed, it may be impurities were in the process.
Does this effect my blade in anyway. I don't want to buy a lemon. There a 100% guaranty with the purchase.
Thanks

I don't think we can really say anything informed without seeing it.
I'd take several pictures, including an overall shot and close-ups of all relevant details, preferably from a few different angles to counter any tricks of light, and using as much light as you can get (full daylight is best). You can either post them here as attachments (there's a 1mb limit per file, and you'll have to be in desktop mode to do this) or upload them to some third party image host like ImgBB or Imgur and link or embed them from there. (Just don't use Photobucket.)
