Additional Description: A skilled blacksmith recognizes when glowing metal is hot enough to be shaped. At that moment, the heated metal is transferred to the solid-iron anvil where it is hammered into the desired form. When finished, the blacksmith cools and hardens the newly forged piece by plunging it into water.
