- ''For other uses, see Smith
In pre-industrialized times, smiths held high or special social standing, as they supplied the metal tools needed for farming (especially the plough) and warfare. As an English suffix, -smith connotes a meaning of specialized craftsmen —for example wordsmith and tunesmith are adjectives to describe the skill of a writer or songwriter, respectively.
Types of smiths include:
- coppersmith, or brownsmith, works with copper.
- blacksmith works with iron and steel.
- whitesmith works with white metal, iron, and can refer to someone who polishes or finishes the metal rather than forging it.
- goldsmith works with gold.
- gunsmith works with guns.
- locksmith works with locks.
- pewtersmith works with pewter
- silversmith, or brightsmith, works with silver.
- tinsmith, or tinner, works with light metal, such as tinware, and can refer to someone who deals in tinware.
- bladesmith - forges knives, swords and other blades.
- swordsmith - a bladesmith who forges only swords.
- arrowsmith - forges arrow heads.
- "handsmith" - may be used to designate a person practicing crafts not typically associated with metalwork.
