History of Medieval times and Black Smiths!
----------------------------------
Black smiths, as you all know where men, who did metal work, ether for weapons or appliances such as knifes or spoons, now black smiths also primarly with steel or wrought iron, meaning that they could make a variety of swords! The name blacksmith, was not a councideness, but more so, told you something about him, the black in blacksmith, refers to the fire scale, a layer of oxides that forms on the surface of the metal during heat. The smith derives from the old word "smite" which means to hit, and thats how blacksmith the name was created!
Now, I will be going into the blacksmithing of medieval times! In the medieval time period, black smithing was consiedered part of the seven mechanical arts.
