I ran into a historical account that warriors of old would stab newly forged blades into the flesh of prisoners to cool the metal.
... The organic Nitrogen actually bonds into the blade and makes it uber strong.
So if you dip a new sword into a vat of liquid Nitrogen, it becomes really hard?
Exactly, and although it is less effective organic carbon, ie: Human flesh also does the trick. That and ancient people didn't have liquid nitrogen :p
