Looks more like a Scabbard-Smith. 🤣

I don't know why, but there's something cool about seeing swords and guns together, especially in a setting like this.

I don't see any indication of a forge. Looks like he is mostly cleaning, straightening, and sharpening based on the tools. But I am only the most amateur of metal workers and could be wrong.

I'm making a wild guess and assume there's a forge in the back of the house. Would kind of make sense, I wouldn't want to sit next to a fire polishing a blade given the choice to sit semi outside

Did you want the full over head blueprint of the location to know the picture isn't fake?

Please build a giant telescope, and then point it at a black hole about 60ly away, so the light from earth is bent back towards us. Then we can observe this photo being taken in real time. Well, I haven't done the math on the aperture required, but I'm presuming solar system scale telescope will work... Thx

Uhhh you realize there are muskets hanging on the wall, right? I think its fair to say they don't just make swords :)

For some reason this reminds me of Pakistani gunsmiths. Similarly sized shops, also sitting on floors, no doors etc.

lol dude cant make a straight sword to save his life no wonder he can't afford the front wall of his house.
He’s making scimitars you jackass, they’re curved on purpose
I'm clearly joking you jackass, the 'can't afford another wall' part should have made it clear I was trying to sound stupid on purpose.
