Weaponsmithing is used to make metal weapons (including crossbows) and bolts at a metalsmith's forge.

Skilled weaponsmiths make weapons faster, and make them higher quality.

The most efficient weapon to train weaponsmithing skill with, if you are inclined to melt down the results, are the menacing spikes, enormous corkscrews, and giant axe blades, each with a material size of 5.

Making a weapon grants 30 experience points.
