Hopefully this is just another bug that will be fixed at some point.
These items depend on communication with an authentication server which sometimes poops its pants and doesn't register everything you're authorized to use. Quitting and logging back in fixes that for me. I'm not familiar with Ancestral Knowledge getting reset after going long periods without playing the game, but I'm also not familiar with going long periods without playing the game. I might soon though.
If this situation continues for multiple days, then it's something specific to your account. Given that this item was one of the earliest Twitch Drop rewards, the point of failure could also be there. You didn't mention the blood crystal two-handed sword, which was the Twitch Drop before the mace. Did you claim that reward too and is it on your crafting list?
If you have unlocked some ancestral knowledge recipe from somewhere, it should be unlocked for your entire account forever afterwards.
However, you need to have online connection for the DLC/bazaar items these days. So if you are trying to play singleplayer offline it wouldnt work. Sometimes theres also connection issues with the servers but they should go away on their own relatively quickly. Ive had those kind of issues happen only twice during a year and they went away in a matter of hours.
