Okay, I have a suggestion: it would be very useful to be able to search for forgable items in the same way as snoddasmannen's spell database, here:

So, you could put in what paths you have available and see what you can forge. It sounds like a bit of a big UI addition though - I thought I'd just suggest it, then you can disregard it if it's not feasible!
