In this guide, we’re going to talk about the very basics of crafting as well as listing the majority of the current craftable weapons and armor Valheim has to offer. We’ll also tell you what you need to build to level up stations for crafting progression.
Note: This list of recipes is currently incomplete, but it contains a majority of the weapons and armor in the game. We will update as we discover more.
In Valheim,weapons and armor, depending on the materials used to make them, are crafted at either the workbench or the forge. Weapons and armor not using metal components are generally made at the workbench, while their metal counterparts are forged.
Some components, such as bronze or iron ingots, will need to be smelted before they can be used in making other items.

Much like with the workbench, some of these crafting recipes will require the forge to be upgraded. You’ll need anvils, a forge cooler, forge toolrack, forge bellows, and a grinding wheel near your forge in order to craft and upgrade all the listed items to their max capacity.
