Steel swords became more commonly used during the Middle Ages, around the 11th to 13th centuries. The development of better steel-making techniques allowed for stronger and more durable swords to be produced, leading to their widespread use in Europe and other civilizations.

Where was carbon steel first used?

According to my calculations, Carbon Steel was used thousands of years ago, because, if carbon steel swords were invented thousands of years ago then- heres a question: if carbon steel swords was invented back then, then what made carbon steel swords? the same thing we use to make carbon steel, which is mainly carbon and iron. The carbon, when mixed with molten iron, in fixed proportions, steel of varying strengths are formed. Steel is strong since the carbon atoms enter the metallic lattice of iron the difference in size of the carbon and iron atoms restrict movement of the layers (atoms) hence when a force is applied, the steel resists. by 11SHIFT

Is tungsten used for ninja swords?

The short answer is no. For starters, if you are referrring to the weapon commonly referred to as the 'Ninja-to', it is a creation of pop-culture and has no precedent in the history of Shinobi. Ninja's did however use Katana's and Wakizashi, which are made from Carbon Steel(literally an alloy of Iron and Carbon, with no other elements). Tungsten is added to some modern swords, but Katana's are generally still made from Carbon Steel, though modern steel can be used, such as L-6.

Is steel better than iron?

It depends on what you want to use it for. On the Moh's scale, steel is somewhere between 4 and 4.5, whereas iron is between 6 and 7. In swords, both iron and steel kinds have appeared, but steel is slightly better than iron due to its strength-to-weight ratio and its flexibility. Keep in mind, steel--unlike iron--is made of different metals to improve its strength. For piping, steel would be better (but not the first choice among other materials to use). Steel is also more resistant to rust, than iron, and the weldability of steel is better than iron.
