Blacksmiths (鍛冶屋, Kajiya) are a recurring gameplay mechanic in the Suikoden series. They are the primary means of weapon upgrades throughout the series.
Information
A blacksmith is a craftsman who makes weapons and armor for a living. During the Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars, when weapons were a priority, the main occupation of these craftsmen was forging weapons.
Blacksmiths, for a fee, will sharpen the weapons of your party members, increasing their attack prowess. Each blacksmith has a certain limit to how much they can improve a level, necessitating either a visit for a better blacksmith or giving the blacksmith a hammer which allows them to raise their limit.
In the first Suikoden, there were five recruitable blacksmiths each with their own limit; Maas (5), Meese (9), Mose (12), Moose (15) and Mace (16). In Suikoden II, the blacksmith Tessai increased his limit through different hammers.
