It's a metal, it's a forgin'...Let's take a look at some of the first forged metals and what they can be used for
Forged iron was the first metal to be forged. It was known as the father of all metals. In the early days of iron, it was used to make tools and weapons. Forged iron is tough and strong, but it can break if you hit it hard enough or bend it in an awkward way.
Copper (Cu) is also a fairly common metal that has been used since ancient times. Copper appears in many forms, including sheets, wires, rods and bars. Copper is malleable and ductile (meaning it can be shaped), which makes it ideal for use in making wire and cables because it doesn't fray easily like other metals do when exposed to heat or stress.
