Someone who shapes tools, weapons and other items out of iron and steel, so called because iron is a "black" metal. This craft has been around since humans first learned to shape iron and iron alloys. Metalworkers specializing in bronze or copper are sometimes referred to as "redsmiths",note A more common word historically was "coppersmith" and those that work with tin or pewter (or who finish and polish metal goods in general) are known as "whitesmiths."note Historically also "tinsmith" and "tinker", although the latter became a derogatory term for Irish Travellers (since their main trade historically was itinerant tin-working) "Goldsmith" and "Silversmith" are self-explanatory. The blacksmith was an invaluable member of the community until the advent of mass-production techniques in the twentieth century and is still plays an important role in less industrialized areas. The smith is often used symbolically to represent mankind's creative abilities by manipulating materials to advance technology. His tools, the forge, hammer and tongs, and the anvil are rich with metaphorical meaning. Swordsmiths were held in high regard in Japan, to the extent of attributing magical powers to their work: Masamune, it was said, made a sword that would cut everything sinful while not cutting that which was innocent. All of these are reasons the name "Smith" is so common not only in Anglophone countries but also, for example, in Slavic countries, where variations of the word "Kova�" are also one of the most common surnames, and also in Romance language with names such as Ferrari, Lefèvre, Herrera, Ferreira, and Fieraru. Due to the physical strength needed for pumping the bellows, hammering metal, and enduring the temperature of the forge, most blacksmiths will be depicted as burly fellows; variations of this usually include Stout Strength, female blacksmiths with a Wrench Wench vibe, and smaller smiths with wiry muscle giving them surprising strength. If forced into combat, most fictional blacksmiths can use their hammers to devastating effect, but weaponsmiths will often use the weapons they specialize in making instead. The blacksmith may possibly be related to robot tropes as well in a sort of Technology, Strength, and Intelligence sort of way. While blacksmiths made many different useful items, in fiction you will generally see them specializing in weapons (especially swords), armor, fetters and chains (usually these smiths are depicted less favorably than other metalworkers) and horseshoes (a specialist in the last is often called a "farrier.") In actual history, bladesmithing and armor making were specialized professions that often had their own guilds, and the process involved a whole workshop of journeymen and apprentices rather than a lone smith at the anvil. The tools and techniques required to make arms or armor were also carefully guarded and not available to the average blacksmith or farrier, who would not be wasting his time making nails or horseshoes if he could instead be making blades or plate armor for higher profits. Blacksmiths could, in a pinch, produce rudimentary weapons and armor to equip a hastily-formed militia: this could involve modifying farm tools such as the mowing scythe and threshing flail to work better as weapons, or beating out helmets that resembled cooking pots. In much fantasy, however, an "ordinary" blacksmith may be able to produce weapons of quality well above what he would realistically be capable of. Also notable is that historically, contrary to stereotypes, women were regularly involved in the trade. It was still male-dominated BUT several of the disciplines (nails, pins, chains) were almost exclusively women. Women owned blacksmith shops, took apprentices, worked the forge - all of the things that mark them as “real� blacksmiths. One anecdote is from William Hutton’s History of Birmingham; he encountered a nailer’s shop in which he noted “one or more females, stripped of their upper garments, and not overcharged with the lower, wielding the hammer with all the grace of the sex.� Taken to its fullest extent, the blacksmith becomes the Ultimate Blacksmith: the person responsible for weapon class MacGuffins, he is the person who makes the demon-slaying sword or fixes it or purifies it so it will not consume the user's soul. Makes a weapon that the hero treats as his keepsake or turn the seemingly useless ore into something useful. He prides himself in his work and treats them like children and the wielder as a father. You can still find blacksmiths working today. These days they tend to make specialist and custom items that are not economic for or require a level of attention to detail incompatible with mass production techniques. Such artisans will produce custom knives, film and theatre props, decorations, custom sized wrought iron gates, weapons and armour for War Reenactors, members of the Society for Creative Anachronism, LARP enthusiasts etc. and farriers are still around working for hunts, the horseracing industry, horse owners and the leisure riding industry. Other smiths produce decorative items such as candelabras. He will generally be the star of a Forging Scene. A trope with similar connotations, but using a more feminine pursuit, is Sweet Baker. |

Ys II: Ancient Ys Vanished – The Final Chapter features a blacksmith who is initially out of work because he is out of iron ore. The mine that has some iron ore is full of demons, so the miners require good armor and weapons to kill the demons in order to mine. Unfortunately, the armor and weapons shop has only weak armor that is too weak for the miners who are not master swordsmen to survive due to the lack of iron ore needed to make the iron that the armor requires to be made. Furthermore, Velagunder, a giant demon, guards the iron ore in the mine. This demon is vulnerable only to fire magic and is invulnerable to physical attacks in this game. Adol has to go into the mine with a sword, a shield, the ability to use Ys's magic, and weak armor to kill Velagunder and to get the iron ore to break this cycle. | |

Man at Arms is more or less this trope brought to life. The cast makes fully functional versions of various items from many, many different media covering anime, video games, comic books, and movies. Mostly swords but also other weapons and armour as well. As has been noted that Ilya from the Reforged second season has become something of an expert at making massive, oversized blades (read BFS) thanks to the many, many ones they've made over the course of the show. | |

In The Silmarillion, pretty much any given Elf will have forged some weapon at some point or another in their career. The Noldorin elves in particular are noted for their ability at smithing. Most notable is Fëanor, who created the Silmarils, forged the first weapons in Valinor, and was even trained by the God of Smithcraft Aulë. Sauron was also trained by Aulë (before transferring his allegiance to Melkor) and had his fair share of metalworking. The Dwarven race, having been created by Aulë, also fits this trope, almost even more so than the Elves. The go-to guy for really good blades seems to have been Telchar the Dwarf: he forged both Narsil and Angrist, the knife which cut the Silmaril from Morgoth's crown. | |

Presea from Magic Knight Rayearth is a special case. Each weapon she crafts is intended for a specific wielder, and while it's possible to borrow some of them in a pinch, the swords she makes for the heroines can only be handled by them alone. In addition, she forges the weapons through dance and her own will rather than with a hammer and anvil—in the middle of a forest known for canceling out all forms of magic, no less. In the anime series, Presea's Angsty Backup Twin Sierra cannot make weapons, but she can repair them following a similar process. |

Fire Emblem, from Path Of Radiance onwards, has the Forge game mechanic where some characters can become blacksmiths and forge all kinds of pre-existing weapons (swords, knives, axes, lances, bows, magic tomes, etc.) into stronger versions: Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn have Daniel from the Merchant Convoy. The DS remakes of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light and Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem plus Fire Emblem: Awakening have NPCs (and in Awakening's case, the Merchant Annas who show up randomly) that double as merchants and blacksmiths. In Fire Emblem Fates, anyone in the playable cast save for the Avatar and Lilith can take up the blacksmith role if the Avatar has a Smithy building in My Castle, goes in there and has not only weapons to spare but some specific type of ore. (i.e., a Nohrian sword and some rubies, a Hoshidan katana and pearls, etc.) In Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, some towns have NPCs that will forge weapons in exchange for Silver and Gold marks. |

The blacksmith in Farmer Giles of Ham is a morose man who always predicts everything will fail and is only happy when his doomsayings come true. Pointing out that he is just a village toolmaker, not an armourer, he is unable to make real armour or a shield for the Anti-Hero Giles. He cobbles together some sort of rings attached to a leather coat, however. (Giles doesn't need a weapon — it's that damned magic sword he was given that forces him to become a dragonslayer.) | |

Mabinogi and its prequel Vindictus both feature blacksmith Fergus. In the latter, he's the only blacksmith available to craft weapons and armour. In the former, he's one of several; and is the worst, clumsiest, least-reliable of the lot. In both games, the character has the opportunity to learn blacksmithing skills. In Vindictus, the character has to specialize in a particular type of blacksmithing — weapons or armour, not both. In Mabinogi, the character not only learns to craft both weapons and armour, but also everyday tools (including the hammer required to practice the skill). |

After the concluding of Fullmetal Alchemist, Arakawa made a side-story chapter where this trope applies. After Al receives his old suit of armor in a package, he decides to turn the material of the armor into automail. In response, Winry takes him and Edward to the blacksmith, where Winry is acquainted with the men there. Who knew that the producing of automail steel actually had a back story? Huh. | |

John Rambo seems to have picked up some metalworking skill during his 20 years of residence in Thailand, as he is shown making the blade for a boat rotor and later on smashing a leaf spring into a large knife in the latest movie. A deleted scene for Rambo III demonstrated this as well, and it is obvious why it was cut. The knife Rambo forges here (using soft, delicate lovetaps with a mallet) is practically a sword and features craftsmanship more suitable for someone who's dedicated their life to the trade, rather than a Vietnam vet living in a monastery. In a way, the two scenes contrast the differences between the commercial, glossy, and pompous Rambo III and the grittier, darker, and simpler Rambo IV. |

Ashul Edwaru is the master blacksmith from Tower of God. Not only did he create the Thirteen Months, he was also the first to realize that the weapons that came from outside the tower would eventually become utterly useless in the higher levels (especially swords and axes).

Discworld: Jason Ogg, son of Nanny Ogg, who's so good at his craft that he's the only one Death trusts to shoe his horse. The downside is, well, he has to shoe Death's horse. The price for being the best blacksmith in the world is being the best blacksmith in the world. As in, being the best obligates you to ALWAYS be the best. If someone brings him something and asks for it to be shoed, Jason must shoe it. He's even put shoes on an ant that some friends brought to him as a joke. He also shoes a unicorn. He has to use silver shoes and nails, and remarks that they won't last very long. Eskarina Smith's father in Equal Rites was a blacksmith. He's described as nodding to a wizard, one professional in an arcane art to another. It's not clear if the wizard agrees. In Unseen Academicals, smithing is one of Nutt's many talents. He needs to the Horseman's Word to keep from frightening off the horses, but he's very good. |

Hewg from Elden Ring acts as the game's primary blacksmith. He's a Misbegotten who was cursed by Queen Marika and bound to the Roundtable Hold, forging weapons for the Tarnished. Though trapped in his post, he doesn't seem to mind the work and grows increasingly focused on his mission of forging a weapon capable of killing a god. Even after burning down the Erdtree and his servitude lifted, he remains in his post smithing. Being bound to the Hold, his mind deteriorates along with it as it burns and he forgets everything other than the fact that he's a blacksmith (and he even briefly forgets that before noticing he's hammering away at an anvil and assuming he must be one based on that). There's also Iji, a Troll blacksmith in service to the Carian royal family, who treats you to the comical sight of him gently tapping away at your dinky weapons with his bus-sized hammer. However, should you complete Ranni's questline, he ends up assassinated by Black Knives, leaving Hewg as the sole remaining blacksmith in the game. | |

World of Warcraft features Blacksmithing as a learnable profession for Player Characters, as well as a wealth of Blacksmith NPCs in every major city, many towns, and even randomly in the wilderness, some of whom will offer to teach Blacksmith PCs exclusive recipes as quest rewards. Characters who learn Blacksmithing produce metal weapons and armor, various metal items used by other professions, and various weapon and armor enhancing items. At higher levels, Blacksmiths have the option to undergo quest chains to specialize in weapon or armor smithing. As of the Burning Crusade expansion, the Weaponsmith and Armorsmith specializations can only be used to create specialty weapons and armor for yourself. The specialty items a weaponsmith or armorsmith makes cannot be given to any other character. Ironic, considering that the dwarf in Ironforge who offers the Weaponsmith quest tells you about how lucrative it is to sell your weaponsmithing products. |

Anyone with high Craft (Fire) in Exalted would qualify. This subset of the Craft skill is used for everything from horseshoes to daiklaves. The setting also contains other, weirder smiths, such as the notoriously unreliable and sex-crazed demon-dwarves known as heranhal, or Alveula, Keeper of the Forge of Night, a powerful demon who smelts humans into equipment and carries a hammer about the same size as herself. Also Autochton, a Primordial (godlike being older than gods) also known as the Great Maker or the King of Craftsmen and whose classical representation is a one-eyed smith hammering a daiklaive. |

Many versions of Dungeons & Dragons include crafting rules, which naturally leads to this. Many races, including dwarves, azers, and salamanders, are noted to be particularly good smiths, and there are many classes or abilities that make the players better at it, including the Artificer (a magic item craftsman). In 3rd Edition, it was explained that the majority of blacksmiths are Experts, an NPC class that lacks any particular abilities but can pick up all the relevant crafting skills. To commemorate this, Moradin the dwarf god is statted out as having fourteen levels in Expert. | |

A deleted scene for Rambo III demonstrated this as well, and it is obvious why it was cut. The knife Rambo forges here (using soft, delicate lovetaps with a mallet) is practically a sword and features craftsmanship more suitable for someone who's dedicated their life to the trade, rather than a Vietnam vet living in a monastery. In a way, the two scenes contrast the differences between the commercial, glossy, and pompous Rambo III and the grittier, darker, and simpler Rambo IV. | |

Every fort in Dwarf Fortress values its skilled smiths. There are Blacksmiths, who make large objects and furniture from metal, Metalcrafters, who make smaller trade goods, and most importantly, Weaponsmiths and Armorsmiths. Players tend to cultivate these, letting no other dwarves do any smithing work and producing obscene amounts of weapons from crappy metals in order to train a smith up to Legendary skill, at which point the smith cranks out high-quality items (which do more damage or provide more protection) at an impressive rate. Because it takes so long to train a smith to Legendary, these dwarves are highly valued and protected. Of course, once they're legendary and have made masterwork equipment for all your troops, there's not much more for them to do but make replacement equipment for when your dwarves inevitably dodge an attack and fall off of a bridge into the fortress's lava moat. Also, the "strange moods" of DF cause a dwarf to produce a legendary artifact in some craft that they have skill in, even dabbling skill, and become legendary in that skill. A lot of players exploit this and assign all peasants to make a few weapons or armor so that they'll have dabbling armor- or weaponsmith skill. Then they go back to farming or hauling crap around, skills which do not tap into strange moods, and if they get a mood they'll be guaranteed to make an artifact weapon or armor and become legendary. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past has the two dwarven blacksmiths of Kakariko Village. The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap has Smith, Link's grandfather. He and King Daltus are good friends. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Mostly offscreen, but Link's mentor, Rusl, is a blacksmith. He forged the Ordon Sword as an offering for the Hyrulean Royal Family. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds has the Blacksmiths of Hyrule and Lorule. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask has a blacksmith and his partner who improve Link's sword twice. The first upgrade, the Razor Sword, is a temporary one that is lost whenever Link travels back in time. The second upgrade, the Gilded Sword, requires valuable Gold Dust, but it is a stronger weapon that remains with Link even if he goes back in time. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass has Zauz, a blacksmith who resides on his own island in the northwestern sea. He helps Link forge a new Phantom Sword after the former lost it in some way. |

Both Jaune and his father are Blacksmiths in Forged Destiny. Jaune's father has a very high level for a member of the Labor Caste at 25 while Jaune himself may be well on his way to becoming an Ultimate Blacksmith as he has already greatly surpassed his father's level after attending Beacon for less than a year. | |

In The Wheel of Time: Perrin Aybara is an apprentice smith and Closer to Earth than the other Two Rivers characters. He frequently struggles to balance the life of a smith and the life of a warrior — and, later, the life of a lord. Robert Jordan actually researched blacksmithing, and depictions of Perrin working are meticulously accurate (except for a minor error or two that were corrected in later editions.) Blacksmiths are given special eminence in the culture of the Aiel, a Proud Warrior Race. They're the only members of the society not expected to take up arms in a fight and are similarly immune to attacks from a rival clan. Killing a blacksmith is possibly the most heinous crime the Aiel recognise, except possibly for killing a child. |

Wonder Woman In the Golden Age Wonder Woman's lasso was forged by the skilled Amazonian blacksmith Metala, as shown in Sensation Comics. Io from Greg Rucka's Wonder Woman (1987) run is the Amazonian blacksmith. She forges weapons for Wonder Woman out of not only metal but also the essence of truth. Hephaestus/Vulcan maintains his position as blacksmith of Olympus, and some continuities take the Amazon's more amazing creations and credit them to him instead, such as Wonder Woman (2011) which has him as the creator of Diana's more hardy indestructible armor instead of Io. |

The Elder Scrolls Throughout the series' lore, Orcs are renowned across Tamriel for the skill as blacksmiths, forging some of the best and most sought-after heavy armors in the land. Young Orcs, male and female alike, are trained from a young age to mine and smith ore, particularly the rare metal Orichalcum. Throughout the series, most major (and some minor) settlements have at least one blacksmith, with many of the larger settlements having several. (Which in this case, they tend to either specialize in different types of weapons/armor or are rivals.) In Skyrim, for the first time in the series, the Player Character can create new weapons and armor out of raw materials (rather than repairing already-made good in past games). As a result, he/she can become a Blacksmith without peer with the ability to create armor out of high-tier dragon bones and scales. |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Gendry was a smith in training before being sold to the Night's Watch, and his craft comes in useful when travelling across war-torn Westeros, as it makes him a valuable prisoner when taken to Harrenhal and he's later able to assist the Brotherhood Without Banners with their weapons. He mentions he was an armorer's apprentice specifically, rather than an ordinary blacksmith, so his ability to forge weapons and armour for various characters is more realistic than most versions of this trope. He's also a perfect example of the secret legacy variant mentioned above, as his skill with a smith's hammer is an allusion to the fact his father was actually King Robert who was known for his legendary skill with a war hammer. Donal Noye is a retired smith with one arm ...who killed the King of the Giants. One of the aspects of the "Seven" is that of a blacksmith. Although some septons (the Westerosi equivalent of priests) preach that "The Smith" can be seen in other occupations as well. The fact that the blacksmith is the general image for this deity speaks volumes about how important the trade is to this type of society. |

There are at least a couple of blacksmiths in the Final Fantasy series, starting with the dwarf who forges Excalibur in the first game. Final Fantasy XIV also allows players to become a Blacksmith as one of the many crafting professions they can pursue to create gear and other items. Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings has Cu Sith, perhaps the cutest version of this ever. She's a tiny little Yarhi who works as the party's chief mechanic and Master Artificer to forge weapons on their airship. There are a total of three playable smith classes in Final Fantasy XIV, the blacksmith who specializes in weapons, armorsmiths who create armor, and goldsmith who create various accessories. |

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power: In Numenor, one must have a blacksmith guild crest to be a blacksmith. Celebrimbor is the greatest of the Elven Smiths and is therefore sought out by Elrond, on instruction from High King Gil-galad, to begin work on a "special project". However, he feels his mastery of his craft is vastly inferior to that of his grandfather, Fëanor, whose Silmarils were said to have captivated the Dark Lord Morgoth and almost moved him to repentance. He also mentions that he respects the Dwarves for their smithing skills, in contrast to most other Elves who are largely apathetic to the Dwarf race. Halbrand shows a great interest in blacksmithing and seems to have a great yearning to do so, even claiming that his smithing skills are unmatched, to the point of begging a blacksmith to let him help out in any sort of forging and even attempting to steal a guild emblem so he can be allowed to forge. He later demonstrates that he is indeed quite a capable smith, forging fine weapons with ease that impress the other blacksmiths. In Eregion, he gets to work with Lord Celebrimbor, and mentions being an blacksmith apprentice in the past, he talks about Aulë. |

Forged in Fire is a competition show based around this trope. Typically, the show has four bladesmiths, with one eliminated each round. The first round consists of making a simple blade, and the second round of testing it. For the third and final round, the two finalists have five days to forge a particular historical weapon (anything from a medieval European arming sword to a Maasai lion spear), which is then subjected to rigorous testing. The winner receives $10,000. | |

Warhammer 40,000: Vulkan, the primarch of the Salamanders was raised as a blacksmith on his home planet, and his chapter has kept this tradition alive in the millennia since. In addition to forging and maintaining their own gear, The Salamanders also tend to favor flamethrowers, meltaguns, and energized hammers in combat. This has practical applications to their role as defenders of humanity as well; they are the only chapter able (and willing) to help rebuild essential infrastructure when the fighting is over. Ferrus Manus of the Iron Hands was an excellent smith who forwent hammers and used his fists (covered in some sort of living metal) in his forging. For the Heretics there was Fulgrim, who challenged Ferrus to a forging competition to see who could make the better weapon. In the end, they called it a draw, though Fulgrim went on to use the sword Ferrus made to cut off Ferrus' own head in a duel. |

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask has a blacksmith and his partner who improve Link's sword twice. The first upgrade, the Razor Sword, is a temporary one that is lost whenever Link travels back in time. The second upgrade, the Gilded Sword, requires valuable Gold Dust, but it is a stronger weapon that remains with Link even if he goes back in time. | |

Minecraft. As long as you have the right materials and a Crafting Bench, you can basically make any tool or armor the game allows you to. Villagers have three different blacksmithing "professions," armorer, toolsmith, and weaponsmith. They will sell you tools and refresh their stock after working at their respective workstationsnote blast furnace, smithing table, and gridstone, respectively. Before the villager revamp, their was just the generic blacksmith who handled all three of the current professions. |

Daja from Circle of Magic is a blacksmith, and her magic is tied into her smithing. This is specifically cited as a fetish by Rizu, who says that part of the reason she's attracted to Daja is that she's so strong and makes beautiful things. Daja's teacher Frostpine is also a metalsmith, and one of the Great Mages in their world. |

Ragnarok Online has its own variety of the Blacksmith as a class, derived from Intrepid Merchants. Blacksmiths are capable of direct combat via Status Buffs, forging weapons, and refining metals. In battle, Blacksmiths can either wield an axe or a mace as their weapon of choice. It also has a few Ultimate Blacksmiths making appearances in quests, especially the famed God Items quests. The transcended class for Blacksmiths is known in the original Korean (and Japanese) versions of RO as "Whitesmith." Because of the obscurity of that term could have lead to unwanted controversy, Gravity LLC changed the class name to "Mastersmith." |

Every Rune Factory game has a blacksmith, all but one of which is talked about as though they're a master craftsman. The one who isn't praised is more into building golems and does smith work on the side. Only one of the smiths who is praised can actually make decent weapons. He's also the only dwarf smith. It's his only dwarven trait. Also, you can become one yourself after you purchase an extension for your house. |

Guardians of Ga'Hoole: Bubo is the blacksmith of the Great Ga'Hoole Tree, big, burly, and having a good sense of humor. He's also strangely colored for a great horned owl, being a ruddy orange instead of brown like other great horned owls, due to spending nearly all his life near forges and fire. There are other blacksmiths throughout the series besides Bubo, sometimes living with other owls and others on their own. They often fly out on their own to gather their own coals and make weapons like battle claws. |

Kate, the farrier from A Knight's Tale, is the Wrench Wench version. In a case of Shown Their Work this is historically accurate. Blacksmiths of the time often trained their wives in their trade and the smiths' guild had a rule that a woman could continue to work in the profession if her husband died as a way of providing for herself and any children. This is why Kate briefly mentions a late husband in one scene. | |

Anyone in Mage: The Awakening with at least middling skill in Matter can become The Blacksmith, verging on Ultimate Blacksmith at higher proficiency. Materials can be shaped and reinforced; alloys can be formed that would not naturally hold together; and, with other arcana included, alchemically perfected metals can be produced and forged into intrinsically magical alloys. Special mention goes to the Forge Masters legacynote In Legacies: The Ancient, who make equipment for the Adamantine Arrow shock troops. The Smith kith in Changeling: The Lost are all about this, naturally. |

In the Fighting Fantasy book City of Thieves, there is a blacksmith who works on ordinary everyday items. He also has a secondary business of making chainmail. Your character can buy a set from him, which he takes from a hiding spot in a hayloft. Alternately you can murder him and take his money lying about, but you won't find his chainmail and you lose some luck because the blacksmith was one of the few good people living in Port Blacksand. | |

Aries Mu from Saint Seiya, the only person able to fix heavily damaged Saint Cloths... at very high prices. Not because he's evil (he is not), but because to repair a 'dead' Cloth is necessary to drench them in lots of blood, and Mu won't give his to see if the Saint requiring the repair is worthy. Shiryu does it to repair two, and almost dies. Side material reveals that Mu isn't actually supposed to be a Clothsmith, as the job would fall to the Sculptor Saint and the Caelum Saint, whose Cloths include the appropriate tools. Currently, there is no Caelum Saint, so Mu is possession of the Cloth and uses its tools for the job (and may be training his little brother for it), while the Sculptor Saint is never seen. |
