Where is the Blacksmith Shop in Stardew Valley?

Finding the Blacksmith’s shop isn’t challenging, in fact, it’s just right behind the museum. You may visit it by crossing the bridge close to Mayor Lewis’ manor and taking a few steps going north. Once you find a gray-bricked home, you’re in the right place.

But if you’ve fixed the Minecart close to the Bus Stop you can just take a free ride from it and visit the store.

What time does the Blacksmith open in Stardew Valley?

The shop is open from 9 AM to 4 PM every day. But interestingly, you can still get his services past his closing time if you’ve stayed there longer. As long as you’re inside the facility, you may still purchase anything you like even if the owner isn’t behind the counter.

Additionally, upon fixing the Community Center successfully, it’ll be closed every Friday. It also becomes unavailable every Winter 16 at 10:30 AM, since he’s taking a trip to Harvey’s clinic for a checkup.

While instead of using a Gold Ore to make bars, you can either purchase Iron Ores or Bars and use the Transmute (Au) formula. Using this method helps quicken the smelting process from five hours to two. It also enables you to save 350g for the first year and 1,000g for the second.

Tool Upgrades

If your element is to become more efficient, then getting a tool upgrade is a must. They may come off as pricey, but they’re worth it since you can complete various quests with the right tools.
