How to start forging
The good news about blacksmithing in Bannerlord is that you don't need much to get started. You just need one selected amount of raw materials and stamina of your character (which regenerates while resting in cities). Here is the list of all the raw materials you can find in the game:

Every large city will have a blacksmith and the first time you get there you'll immediately be presented with a few choices. As you will see on their menu, you will First you need to create simpler weapons/weapon parts and in time you will move on to the better ones.
The actions available to you are:

You will get XP by completing all the actions described above to the blacksmith. Still, there is a stamina limit to the number of actions you can perform when there. When your character gets tired of smithing, you have to do it yourself rest a day in a populated place (not out) to replenish your strength.
Companions are a great resource when it comes to smithing. When your main character's stamina bar depletes, simply select a companion to forge for you. The more you have, the more you can forge in one go.
When you start, you should know this Hardwood is the most important blacksmithing material as it is refined into charcoal, essential for obtaining the finer metals needed to forge weapons.
You can get hardwood by trading with cities and villages. For example, we found that a Makeb merchant had more than 500 hardwoods in his stash, but this may not be the case in your game. Whatever the case, make sure you travel to different places and look for this precious material.
The villages around the map will be marked with small icons that represent which goods are present in their areaso when you're hunting hardwood look for a little log icon next to a location.

YYou can earn a lot of money by blacksmithing and this is one of his main advantages. When you have a gun you're happy with, it's time to get rich.
The lowest level of weapons you can craft can be sold for 500 denarii, but as you perfect the smithing and start making higher level items available, you will see between 30,000 and 40,000 denarii a piece.
When you are satisfied with the amount you have in your pocket, start smelting your crafted weapons as this will unlock new parts for youand these new parts will allow you to make even more powerful weapons.
Pugios yield the maximum amount of material when cast. You can buy them from merchants or get them as loot after battle.
Forging two-handed swords is the easiest way to get started as a beginner, as they will allow you to learn many new parts and are expensive once sold. Additionally, they give a large amount of XP.
You can sell weapons to cities and villages but in the future, you should look for the gentlemen because they have more money. The best solution is to find a large army about to launch a major offensive, where at least five to ten lords are present. Talk to any of them and you will see that they will have significantly larger budgets for purchases than city merchants.
To trade with lords you must:
-
Select “There is something I would like to discuss.”
-
Select “I have a proposal that could be beneficial to both of us.”
- Add the items you want to sell in your trading window.
- Select 'Deniers' from their menu and drag the line increasing the amount of money you want them to pay you.
Remember this the gentleman will accept the offer as long as the bar above is green. When it turns red he will not pay the money you ask for.
Keep in mind that not all lords will want to trade with you. You will have to talk to a representative of a faction with which you are on good terms.
If you have your own kingdom, you can summon your lords for a campaign. Once they are all in front of you, you can sell them your expensive weapons and let them go. To take advantage of this, you can call them back every seven to ten days and they will return with a new budget.
