Iron itself is actually very soft. Wrought iron and steel were the types of iron used by the Romans. The Romans used Noric steel for many of its weapons. The use of steel dates back 4,000 years, so it is not a modern invention as stated above. You can confirm this on Wikipedia under Steel, Noric steel, and Roman Metallurgy.
