The 'forge kozane and nihonto' skill is used to create blades and armor in
the Suborian style. These include weapons such as wakizashis, katanas
and naginatas, and lamellar armor such as do-maru, haidate, sode, kote
and suneate.  The skill is also necessary for assembling finished
weapons in the southern style. Southern-style weapons tend to be
a little faster than their northern counterparts and have a higher
base damage roll, but are bit less damaging overall. The armor tends
to be somewhat lighter than their traditional equivalents.

Due to the more precise techniques used in their manufacture, they
have a greater chance to be mastercraft.

The art of forging southern-style weapons and armor includes knowledge of
rare alloys that can be made from metals from the southern mainland and
Suboria. They will be displayed by the 'forge list alloy' command
after you learn this skill.

High strength will help you forge weapons and armor from harder metals more
easily, while higher constitution will reduce the amount of movement
required. A high intelligence is also helpful, especially when working with
more difficult metals such as high-grade steels, mithril or adamantium.
