This will detail some of the ways to craft tools
there will also be a link at the end where someone else did it cleaner and with images

Dagger
Daggers are made with any one hand grip and any short blade
Sword
Swords are made with Normal sized blades, which require two heated ingots to be on the anvil
Any Grip must first be combined with any Non-Strong (one hand) guard
then the gripped guard can be attached to the normal blade
Greatsword
Like a sword, except this is three heated ingots - all of its guards are "strong" and generally bigger.
Hatchet (Small axe)
two heated ingots and any one hand grip
In order for it to be saleable


Bonus Information.

Bonus
The Blacksmith is more talented (or less caring) than NPCs about the tools
A Blacksmith can equip ANY Hatchet/Small Axe head.

One hand, Two hand, even Pole grip last I checked, if its got a small axe head, the Blacksmith can equip it as their hatchet.

NPCs will ignore its existence if it isn't one hand grip
Two hand Large Axe/Two headed Axe
Pickaxe and Large Axe head are both three ingot axe heads with a blade on both sides.

These both use two handed grips, of any variety, to make proper items.



Bonus
Bonus information
Like with the Hatchet, The blacksmith is capable of using anything with a Pickaxe head on it.
The customers will ignore it if its not a two hand grip
Hammers
Small Hammers and maces are made with two ingots and one hand grips

Greathammers/War hammers are made with three ingots and two hand grips




Bonus
Information that is extra


If it is a Mallet/hammer head (small hammer head that isn't a mace head) The Blacksmith can use it but unlike with hatchet and Pickaxe, The blacksmith cannot use hammer + Polegrip as their smithing hammer

This is because Small Hammer + Pole Grip is an Alternate style of Polearm
Polearms
Like mentioned in hammer section
Polearms can be fixed with a small hammer as a variant 2 polearm (I think it was variant 2, it doesn't really matter)

The other Polearm variant is Polegrip + Dagger head




Extra bonus info
These are still perfectly sellable to customers

Polearms are "blade + polegrip"
this actually means any blade is possible, You can each make a large blade + polegrip polearm, and sell it.

But that isn't all.
You can also give it a guard, for just a pinch extra cost, you can make any Polegrip, any guard, any blade combination, and sell it.

Guard will not attach to a hammer head - if a polegrip has a guard, it will only take blade
Shields
Shields require you to cut lumber, take the log over to the woodworking bench, and select planks, then press the lever down to cut it into the planks

With the planks stacked on there from one log, some of the shields will be selectable, among other things.
To get the other shields that cost more planks, you'll need to set the first planks aside, and load up another log to cut, then readd the amount of planks necessary.

once you have the shield board crafted
you will need 5 (6 optionally) ingots in order to craft the rest of the shield
2 ingots are necessary for shield rim
1 ingot for shield boss, a reinforced.. button, basically, that goes in the front of the shield (it will automatically go where it needs to)
1 ingot for the wrist grip
1 ingot for the hand grip
(Optional) 1 ingot for the laurel (if you intend to do it, this should probably not be done last)
The Kitchen sink and everything else
I'll be putting everything else I didn't remember to put before, here, as well as the link I mentioned.

The better basics guide
https://www.pwrdown.com/gaming/how-to-build-every-weapon-my-little-blacksmith-shop/


There's up to three ingots on the anvil for any given smithing. Each ingot must be heated, as long as it says heated.
There's three types of size/thigns, that each go with the number of ingots as well.

Three ingots are the specifically two hand grip sized things - Large blades for greatswords, two head axe and pickaxe, and massive hammer heads for greathammers - each will require a 2h grip, and potentially 2h strong guard.

two ingots are the larger one hand item parts - Blades, Axes and hammers, as well as the rim of shields.

one ingot is the smallest of the small. Daggers. And the trinkets that also accompany the shield's board and rim, which are, two types of enarmes (wrist and hand), the boss (the center point "button"/reinforcement, and, optionally, a laurel for decoration.

As mentioned above Polearms are, flexible.
They can be just a polegrip + dagger, or polegrip + hammer (Not great hammer/war hammer/large hammer head) - Or, They can be Polegrip + Blade (any) or polegrip + guard (any) + blade (any)
For example - Rare angel polegrip + rare angel guard + wolf blade (katana greatsword blade, I believe is called wolf blade in game) - Is perfectly capable of being sold.
Just as much as wooden polegrip + twin guard + spear head (dagger)

Edit: 1/7/2021 - Check out the discord for more tool-part information if its not her or the linked content, inquiring about such parts is more likely to be seen and responded to there, by more people, potentially.

@R A J I N Probably would be best to hop over onto the discord, I think they come from adventurer drops, much like socket grips, but I can't swear to it. I haven't used the adventurer much as I haven't played but little bits and pieces in 035

How about Heroic and Legendary grip; how do you acquire those?

You should for example, be able to put a grip onto a guard, and then a dagger blade onto that guarded-grip
It won't be able to be sold like that, but it should still be possible, if it doesn't, chances are the head isn't considered cool, though maybe it could be something like, having moved something to the workbench like a shelf or the incinerator, and it blocking the assembly area with its hitbox

They must be assembled on the Workbench still
All tool heads must be cooled. - If you question if its been cooled or not, the easiest way to be sure is to toss it on the forge and forcibly return it to saying "heated" and then cool it in the oil again. - Letting it cool off slowly over time, and dragging it past an active forge, can run the chance of it not being actually cooled even if it still says cooled at the end of the day.

But if They're cooled, If they're the right parts to attach together, and done on the workbench, if you're using the assembly method selected, They should attach, even if they're not sellable.

mmm.. Hard to say without more info?

Prreeetty sure the guide is still largely correct cause the core method hasn't changed, Though, I think I made this before there was two assembly methods, I glanced back over it, I don't think I made any mention of assembly method one way or the other, so I don't assume that should be inhibiting anyone

When I made this, If I did mention even for a small portion, assembly, it was previously just dragging and dropping items together, and that method is still possible, but its toggled, and not the main method by default at this time

Current main method is using E to pickup and place the item (hold e while looking at the part to pickup) this should be indicated by a couple tooltips as well.

None of my blades or blunts won't attach to the grips. Is there something i'm doing wrong?:steamsad:

You can put a great blade at the end of a pole arm, it's perfectly acceptable by NPC's

Awh, well at least I helped somewhat, since three ingot polearms are awesome ways to make cash, since polearms are pretty expensive grips early-game.
Kurzidan  [author] 25 Dec, 2019 @ 1:18pm 
Attaching them is one thing

It actually making an item that can be bought is an entirely different thing.

Any Blade any guard any polegrip, will actually make a polearm and announce it, and it can then be sold, as such.

Last time I checked I do not believe Large hammer head made an item, and I'm 99% sure the axe head one doesn't still, since the last time I checked, it was still equipable by the blacksmith as their hatchet, Meaning it wasn't changing the type of item being made into polearm instead of hatchet

you can attach most heads to most grips and/or most guards, but only certain combinations actually make items that can be sold.
