The Simple Sword Blade is a long, roughly forged blade without a handle. Fitted to a Small Handle, it becomes a Simple Sword.
It needs a skilled smith. Forge Crude Sword Blade makes it at a Simple or better Forge with Blacksmithing 8, from an Iron Bar or Steel Bar. The blade also serves as raw stock, since it can be cut down into a Simple Shortsword Blade or a Scrap Metal Shortsword. It comes in two looks, with a tang and without one.
Using Research Craft on it teaches Forge Simple Shortsword Blade, Forge Shortsword Blade, Forge Machete Blade and Forge Scrap Metal Shortsword. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Assemble Bladed Item takes the blade and a Small Handle and makes a Simple Sword. A hammer, club hammer or mallet is kept, and it needs Maintenance 1.
The blade also feeds other forging. Forge Simple Shortsword Blade reworks it into a Simple Shortsword Blade at Blacksmithing 6, with a shard left over. Forge Scrap Metal Shortsword turns it into a Scrap Metal Shortsword at a Primitive or better Forge, with four Charcoal and a Rag, Denim Strips or Leather Strips, at Blacksmithing 5. Forge Crude Sword Blade can even reforge it into a fresh Simple Sword Blade.
The loose blade can be sharpened with Sharpen Blade, Sharpen Blade Poorly with File or Sharpen Blade with Grindstone.
As scrap, it counts as a large iron item. Smelt Iron From Large Item gives four Iron Chunk at a Primitive or better Furnace. Smelt Steel From Large Iron Item gives four Steel Chunk at an Advanced Furnace. Smelt Large Iron Item melts it into a ceramic crucible with iron.
How to Get Simple Sword Blade
Forge Crude Sword Blade makes it at a Simple or better Forge with Blacksmithing 8. The recipe must be learned first. It takes six Charcoal and one Iron Bar, Steel Bar, Katana, Katana Blade, Sword Blade, Simple Sword Blade or Machete Blade. A hammer and tongs are kept.
Dismantle Bladed Item takes a Simple Sword apart with a hammer, club hammer or mallet. That returns the blade.
