Only thing i'd like to add/ask is:

It's obvious a lot of thought hass gone into the materials, and thanks for the explanation i found it very interesting. The only thing i'd like to ask is this:

During the process of making say a 2h great sword... how would you reform lots of different bits of teeth into a large blade and still hold the material consistancy?

I can understand the forming of metals into said shapes, but can't really think how you would do it with incisium etc.... can it be melted down and reformed?
Well... unless you pulled a giant tooth out of a 100ft dinasaur and just filed it down ofcourse

So, would it be better to allow such materials to be used in smaller blades... e.g. daggers and spear heads... maybe even 1h swords... but not for 2h's?

btw i love complex crafting systems Looking forward to the next big update in crafting and balancing.

I would assume grinding the teeth to a powder, then mixing the powder with a variable of liquid to form a moldable clay substance, you then form your weapon and heat it up in a kiln. Just my theory.
