Steel Meets Steel - Ten Years of Glory, which was released on October 23, 2007, is the first compilation album by the Swedish power metal group HammerFall.
The CD consists of 2 discs compiling (and remastering) some of their finest works of their 1997-2006 albums as well as 3 new songs (The Abyss, Last Man Standing, and Restless Soul).
It is one of the few albums where the band mascot, the knight Hector, does not appear.
[1]The song "Last Man Standing" was also released as a single but it was only sold online as an .mp3-file. The song was also made into a music video.[3]
