What is "bladesmithing"?
Bladesmithing is the craft of forging and shaping metal to create knives, swords, and other blades. This involves heating metal in a forge until it becomes soft enough to hammer into the desired shape. After shaping, the blade is carefully ground, sharpened, and often heat-treated to make it strong and durable. Various tools and techniques are used to ensure the blade is both functional and balanced, resulting in a high-quality and reliable cutting tool or weapon.
