In anthropology, bronze is regarded as one of the oldest "hard" metals. In chemistry and Metallurgy, it is kind of in-between hard and soft.

There is not just one metal "bronze". Bronze originally referred to alloys of copper and tin, but today bronze is made with copper in combination with tin, manganese, aluminum, and other materials. Each alloy has its own hardness.

Bronze is considered a relatively soft metal compared to others like steel or titanium. It is not as hard and durable as those metals, making it easier to shape and work with for various applications.
