First, I asked Mormons to explain the claim of a steel sword 2000 years before they were invented.

I don't expect anyone to be an expert at metallurgy, but I do expect religionists to set a standard for honesty. All claims made by us are subject to scrutiny, and if we're going to try to encourage others to change their lives according to our beliefs, we owe them truth, not fraud.
Here's my second question for Mormons:
Why does I Nephi 16:18 claim the existence of a "fine steel bow" in 600 BC, again centuries before the technology existed?
"And it came to pass that, as I, Nephi, went forth to slay food, behold, I did break my bow, which was made of fine steel..."
Don't bows have to be flexible to work? Are we talking about piano wire here, or was the body of the bow made of steel?
