Usage:
scrap <object>

This skill allows a thief experienced with metallurgy to break down
metal weapons, armor, liquid containers and treasure such as jewelry
into raw materials for forging. Pieces are often broken when
rendering them down for scrap. Catastrophic failure, particularly of
very small, complex or highly magical pieces, is common, even for
expert scrappers.

Use of this skill does not require a forge. The object is merely
disassembled and the choicest pieces of metal saved, as opposed
to attempting to melt down the entire object, which would result in
hopelessly impure and contaminated metal. Higher difficulty metals
are more difficult to scrap. Thief level and skill proficiency
determine success, and high dexterity also helping.

The resulting scraps still need to be smelted and refined at a forge
before they can be used for making new objects.
