A weaponsmith says 'When you are ready to start smithing, bring me the straps.'
A weaponsmith says 'Show it to me so I can check the quality.'
A weaponsmith says 'When you have everything start with reheating the iron.'
A weaponsmith says 'When the iron is red hot, take it to the anvil and hammer it into the shape of a long blade.'
A weaponsmith says 'Reheat the blade and make a shallow indentation along the length of both broad sides of the blade.'
A weaponsmith says 'Cool off the blade in a barrel of water.'
A weaponsmith says 'Reheat again and hammer at the edges so they become more narrow.'
A weaponsmith says 'Finally, cool off again and you can start with attaching the guard and hilt.'
A weaponsmith says 'Slide the guard and precious hilt over the flat end of the metal hilt and rivet the pommel in place.'
