“Jahangir's Meteor Dagger”
There have been myths and weapons forged from the stars that have magical powers throughout history. We are sure you may have definitely heard about Attila the Hun's fabled sword of Mars and Arthur's Excalibur, and meteoric swords aren't only just myths. Jahangir, Mughal's Emperor, had a meteorite forged into a pair of swords and a dagger given to him by a local tax collector. When the tax collector's men dug from the meteorite, the ground became hot, and the stone was molten. Before moving it, his men waited for it to cool.
