"Come test this steel! Quality blades, honest craftsmanship!"
―A Roman blacksmith during the Renaissance.[src]
A blacksmith shop in Rome

A blacksmith is a metalsmith who creates objects from wrought iron or steel by forging the metal.

Blacksmiths as a distinct profession have existed since ancient times. During the 5th century BCE, they could be found in most settlements in Greece and, for a fixed price, would improve the armor and weaponry of any customers.[1] In Ptolemaic Egypt, blacksmiths sold a variety of weapons in addition to resources such as iron, bronze and cedarwood.[2]

During the Renaissance, skilled blacksmiths began to apply their practical craft towards making art, such that architectural ironwork flourished. They also made a wide variety of weapons and armor, and capitalizing on this opportunity, the Assassins armed themselves by purchasing blacksmiths' wares.[3] The Templars also used the blacksmiths throughout history to arm themselves and their troops. Cesare Borgia employed at least one skilled blacksmith in his workforce, Auguste Oberlin, who crafted weapons for Cesare's army.[4]

The Assassins of this time also had their own blacksmith in Monteriggioni, who sold two exclusive weapons—the Condottiero War Hammer and the Sword of Altaïr—to Ezio Auditore da Firenze.[3] Similarly, the Kakushiba ikki in Japan recruited the blacksmith Heiji, who upgraded Fujibayashi Naoe's and Yasuke's armor and weaponry.[5] David Walston was another notable blacksmith who lent his skills to the residents of the Davenport Homestead after being invited to live on the land by the Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton.[6]

Description[edit | edit source]

Blacksmiths repaired both broken and partially broken armor. The misthios Kassandra could get her armor upgraded at any blacksmith in Greece. The cost to upgrade a piece of armor varied with the quality it was being upgraded to.[1]

Ezio Auditore could get all of his equipped armor repaired at once, or as individual pieces. The cost to repair a piece of armor varied with its quality and where on the body it was worn.[3][4]

16th century[edit | edit source]

At the turn of the century, blacksmiths began selling a wider variety of weapons, including heavy weapons such as axes and claymores.[4]

Rome[edit | edit source]

Under the rule of the Borgia, most merchants in Rome had been forced to shut down. As the Assassins under Ezio began to liberate the city, they reopened several shops. In return, the blacksmiths began to sell weapons to the Assassins at a discounted rate, and the blacksmith on Tiber Island sold certain weapons and pieces of armor in exchange for collecting certain items.[4]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Blacksmiths seemed to be more brash towards Ezio than the other merchants, blatantly admitting surprise that he was able to afford any of their wares. However, in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, this aspect was toned down; they instead made subtly offensive remarks like "One man's coin is as good as another's" when Ezio bought something from them.
  • When going to a blacksmith in Brotherhood, Ezio had the option to sell trade objects for different amounts of money.
