  • John Brown's blacksmith shop
rdfs:comment
  • John Brown's blacksmith shop was a smithy owned by John Brown located in Port Royal. Brown mainly had an apprentice, most notably Will Turner, who forged many swords while working in the shop. Although Brown was a drunk who seldom did any work, it was his forge and so his name decorated the swords Will makes. In this dusty Port Royal smithy, Will pumps the huge bellows and stokes the charcoal furnace. The furnace flames heat cold steel until it glows white hot. Forging a beautiful sword blade is punishing work; the many hours of hammering, folding, grinding, and polishing have given Will patience and strength.
