Overview
Becoming a Weaponsmith allows the player to craft axes, daggers, greatswords, hammers, mace, shields, spears and swords and as a result, compliments many playable professions. Weaponsmiths can also make consumable sharpening stones that boost your power.
Similarly to becoming a Huntsman, this guide is more expensive than Cooking or Artificing, but it is notably quicker because of it. It’s also possible to recoup some of the initial outlay of money from the weapons you craft, to then sell back to the vendor or to list/salvage on the Trading Post.
Unlike becoming a Chef or Artificer, leveling this and the remaining crafting professions can still take some time (about an hour if you have all the ingredients). This method however is quicker than Jewel crafting. Similarly to becoming a Huntsman, there are a large amount of ingredients involved so it’s always worth paying careful attention to what you have and haven’t bought. It’s also recommend you check your crafting bank in the event you already own some materials.
Total Cost: 14g (with the potential to recoup 2g)
Please note: It is always recommend that you place Buy Orders for crafting ingredients or components. This will take a period of time to gather them all, but will save you money.

This was hard to find lol
These guides are awesome. However, I suspect that they're becoming a victim of their own popularity. It looks like the existence of these guides may be driving up the prices of the items on the list.
Based on April 2, 2013 prices at the trading post, this supply list is over 18G even though I already have some of the supplies.
That's 10G right there without any of the other stuff. Even with buy orders, you won't get the price down to 10G for the full list. Weaponsmith is actually more expensive than leatherworker right now. Leatherworker is 15G tonight.
you forgot to include hard wood log in the the buy list
instead of 300-325 it should be 300-350
instead of "Make 80 Wood Plank" it should be "Make 80 Elder Wood Plank"
Other than that it is all good :)
These guides are helping to drive up prices. I've had to resort to actually farming for items myself. Has anyone found a better guide to farming locations then this one? It feels... incomplete.
