About the Blacksmith woman...

I doubt anyone will ever read this and if they do I'm sure they already know what I'm about to comment on but here it goes anyway... I'm not an expert in any way on blecksmithing and I really can't say for sure I can tell what she is making, but it might be interesting to know I found while researching vietnam that after and during the war many blacksmiths used leftover artillery shells and the metal from other weapons to make their prouducts and this posed a potentially dangerous situation in that some of the amunition taken was still live and many vietnamese were kiled in the process of harvesting such metals.
