Yet still 0 in upstate New York, home to the largest "recorded battle" in ancient "history".

I'm starting to think nobody will ever find one.
Trimble, you ignorant sack of rhinoceros puss. The only thing more obvious than your lack of education is the foul stench that surrounds you.

So easy to see why they find them in Europe and the rest of the World and not in the Americas.
Those places are not "The Chosen Land" so natural processes work differently there. Here God has accelerated the decomposition so you need faith, not evidence.
Or, as one church sign years ago put it: "When you have faith, facts don't matter."

What is amazing is that this is like the 20th one they found. What was the population of Iceland back then? Surely not in the MILLIONS.

And behold, the time cometh that he curseth your SWORDS, that they become slippery, that ye cannot FIND them; and in the days of your APOLOGETICS ye cannot DEFEND them.

Once again, you are missing the point. Mesoamerica's environment isn't ideal for preserving metal artifacts. As you can see below, Skafterhreppur is an arid wasteland, perfect for the preservation of metal.

It looks nothing like this... nothing like it at all...

Re: Yet another 1000 year old steel sword found in europe
It's the slippery earth that hides all that evidence that you skeptics seem to need. God obviously cursed the earth making swords and evidence hard to come by with respect to the Nephites and Lamanites. It's in the Book of Mormon for heaven sake! Read what Samuel the Lamanite said! So the cursing must have been 10X the regular cursing down in central america where the limited geography resides because if it weren't for the cursing, so much evidence would be found to make every skeptic's knees bow and tongue confess that Mormonism is the truth!

Surprise, surprise, there is no divine mandate for the Church to discuss and portray its history accurately.
