Where to get metals?

Don't know if there's a better/alternative source, but...
- Lockworks & Clockworks Knock 10 recipe, with a Glass item included, produces Gervinite, a Knock 4/Rose 2 metal. (Accessible Glass items include sand/sheets of glass you can find while beachcombing, or crafting Amethyst Ampoule, a Knock 5 craft from many Knock skills including L&C itself)
- Several skills including Bells & Brazeries at Forge 10, Discipline of the Hammer at Forge 10 or Glassblowing & Vesselcrafting at Knock 10 can then turn that Gervinite into Orichalcum Wire, a Forge 4/Lantern 1 metal. Note this is not an upgrade but a sidegrade, to give it different Aspects. And this recipe requires a Metal as input in the first place so this will probably not the first step of your metal pipeline.

What Rai Taki said - transmutating/using Gervinite.

Or combing the beach for boxes of contraband or luggage. They are giving wires of metal sometimes.

And there is one metal wire in the attic, way left of the kitchen.

Basically knock keeper level tool & Gervinite will have the Smith with 10 knock at base, then around 5-6 knock max should be easily achievable with drink, soul and memories

and Orichalcum Wire should satisfy most needs for draining water and unlocking room

But wait, Orihalcum requires metal as a prerequisite, no? So OP must come up with metal in the first place to be able to craft Orichalcum.

Yup. Which is why I said Orichalcum Wire can't be the first step. Gotta start with Gervinite or scavenging first.

Thanks guys. In return i'll give you this: Orichalcum Wire is required for the keeper-level craft for Disciplines of the Hammer, creating azoth, a 6-knock liquid :)

There are a few recipes but I was terrible at finding them. You can find two sacred Knock metals in the catacombs and there are two types of wire in the middle and west side of the house.
