'''Blacksmith working the bellows''' is an unnamed NPC who can be found next to the [[Lumbridge]] furnace, where he helps to keep the public furnace running. Unlike most [[non-player character]]s, the blacksmith cannot be spoken or interacted with, although he can be [[examine]]d. He is classed as an object not an NPC and as a result he does not appear as a yellow dot on the minimap.

The blacksmith replaced the [[Smelting Tutor]] on [[17 September]] [[2009]] as part of [[Jagex|Jagex's]] rework of Lumbridge and much of the [[free-to-play]] [[Starting Area]]{{CiteNews |author=Paul |url=http://news.runescape.com/newsitem.ws?id=2221 |title=Advisors and Objectives |newsdate=17 September 2009 |date=15:33, August 6, 2011 (UTC) }}. As the Smelting Tutor himself was not originally present in Lumbridge, his removal and replacement puts the furnace more similar to its original state.

The blacksmith himself does not help to explain [[smithing]] to new players, and as a result he serves only to add realism to the game.
