The Advantages of Forging Metal
The history of metal forging is in many ways the history of human civilization. As humanity attempted to shape the natural world to its needs, the development of metal forging was essential. Entire periods of civilization are categorized by developments in metallurgy, such as the Bronze Age and Iron Age. The 19th and 20th centuries might one day be included in a Steel Age. Forging metal provides numerous advantages essential to modern civilization.
Strength
Metallurgy is probably the oldest of the applied sciences. Since well before recorded history, humans have been using forging to create stronger metals than the ones that are naturally found in the ground. The discovery of steel was probably a necessary step toward the industrial revolution. Only by super-heating iron in a forge is the purer compound of steel created. Today steel and other strong metals created from forging underlie most large construction.
Design
Through the use of a forge to melt metal down to liquid, it is possible to create metal objects in any shape imaginable. This intention is probably what led to the first uses of metal forging, as people created jewelry and other decorative objects out of gold and other attractive metals. This is still a major benefit of forging metal that is taken advantage of today as metal decoration is used all over.
Cost
Due to the techniques first developed during the Industrial Revolution, the art of metal forging now allows the cheap mass production of metals that once were extremely rare and expensive. Steel was known from as early as the 11th century BC. It was only with the development of the Bessemer process in the 19th century that a way to produce it cheaply and in large amounts allowed it to be used in construction that undergirds modernity.
