It's canon in the sense that sloppy writers of RQ-3 era material always assumed iron weapons be enchanted, and get all the luxory extras. I like the way the old RQ-2 era handled pure runic metals (so you vere only capable of castin runic magic of the metals runic affinity and so), and I don't like handling Iron so it's just bigger, better and faster if enchanted. And I don't think the authors of Elder Secrets meant it that way.
