Blacksmithing Recipes covers the raw metalwork behind every forged item: smelting, casting and shaping stock. It turns scrap, ore and old metal items into chunks, bars, blocks, bands and sheets.

The recipes train Blacksmithing. Most of them make no finished item at all. They make the stock that tools, cookware, blades and armour are forged from later. This is where every smith starts, and it never stops being useful. Blacksmithing is a slow, high-investment skill, but a high-level smith can make plate armour, axes, sledgehammers, swords and maces. Forged tool heads and blades are as good as looted ones. The category links the furnaces, where metal is melted, with the forges, where it is shaped.

Skills

Most of the category needs no skill at all. Smelting, casting, extracting iron and the basic forge stock work are open from the first day. Forge Bar From Chunks, Forge Block From Chunks, Pierce Chunk and Forge Scrap Into Chunk are good first jobs.

Precious metal work starts at Blacksmithing 1. Forge Coins, Forge Gold Sheet and Forge Silver Sheet sit here.

Pierce Ingot and Split Metal Sheet need Blacksmithing 3. Forge Steel Sheet and Forge Small Steel Sheet need Blacksmithing 4.

The forge stock recipes give a small amount of Blacksmithing XP each time. Repeating them is a steady way to climb the early levels while building a store of bars. The Blacksmithing skill books raise the XP rate at each pair of levels. The Crafty and Fast Learner traits also speed it up.

The recipes by the skill level they ask for.

Learning

Almost every recipe here is known from the start. Forge Steel Sheet and Forge Small Steel Sheet must be learned first. The magazine Everyday Smithing - April 1993 teaches both. The Blacksmith occupation and the Blacksmith Knowledge trait start with them known. Any smith also learns them automatically on reaching Blacksmithing 6.

The Blacksmith occupation starts with Blacksmithing at level 4. The Blacksmith Knowledge trait adds 2 levels.

These magazines, books, traits and occupations teach recipes from this category that have to be learned.

Materials

Charcoal is the fuel in nearly every recipe. Wood Charcoal from a Charcoal Burner or Dome Kiln keeps the work going. Steel work at the Blast Furnace also burns Coke and uses Limestone.

Raw metal comes from many places. Iron Bloom, Copper Ore and iron ore are the natural routes. Old iron and steel items of every size can be smelted down into chunks. Forged Fishing Hook, Nails, Iron Piece and similar small scraps also count.

Tongs are the tool used most often, and crude tongs work in many recipes. A hammer or club hammer shapes the metal. A metalworking chisel splits bars and sheets. The furnace work uses a Large Ceramic Crucible and bar or ingot molds, all kept after the craft. Kept tools can still wear down with use.

The materials these recipes use up most often.

Stations

Forges and furnaces share this category. Furnaces melt and cast metal. The Primitive Furnace handles bloom and simple smelting. The Smelting Furnace adds crucible work, bar and ingot casting and Cast Blacksmith Anvil. The Blast Furnace is needed for all steel making.

Forges shape the metal. Most stock work runs at the Primitive Forge or better. Split Metal Sheet and the steel sheet recipes need a Simple Forge or better. Forge Bar Into Rod needs the Advanced Forge.

The workstations these recipes run at.

Recipes

Early work turns scrap into stock. Smelt Iron From Small Item and its larger versions give Iron Chunk at a furnace. Extract Iron from Bloom breaks an Iron Bloom into chunks at the forge. Forge Bar From Chunks, Forge Bar Half and Forge Bar Quarter from Chunk shape them into bars.

Mid-game work makes special shapes. Pierce Chunk, Pierce Block and Pierce Ingot make the pierced stock that hammer and axe heads start from. Forge Iron Band and Forge Small Iron Band make bands for spiked weapons. Cast Blacksmith Anvil makes the anvil needed for the Simple Forge.

Steel is the late stage. Smelt Steel From Large Iron Item and its smaller versions turn iron into Steel Chunk at the Blast Furnace. Cast Steel Bar from Iron and Cast Steel Ingot from Iron cast bigger pieces. Forge Steel Sheet and Split Metal Sheet then make the sheets that armour and cookware need.

Every recipe in the Blacksmithing menu is listed with what it makes, what it uses up, the tools it hands back, the skill it asks for and where it is made. A "Yes" under Learned means the recipe has to be learned first. Each tab holds one kind of thing made.

Notes

Nearly every recipe here needs no skill and is known from the start.
Charcoal is the fuel for almost all of it.
Steel needs the Blast Furnace, Coke and Limestone.
Cast Blacksmith Anvil gives the anvil for the Simple Forge.
Forge Steel Sheet unlocks on its own at Blacksmithing 6.
