The legendary straight sword of the Quen Warriors, the Damruas is around a meter in
length, double edged, with a simple circular guard and woven Goanna
hide wrapped hilt. The great cost of the Damruas reflects the
skill, time, and artistry required to make one of these weapons,
which uses steel/carbon layering techniques to produce a steel
blade of phenominal strength and flexibility. Used in Quen martial
arts, Damruas are never sold to those not recognized as Quen
warriors, and their use by those not of that caste is grounds for
duels by the warriors, an often fatal experience.
