Iron manufacturing techniques in Kazakhstan are mainly based on metallurgical knowledge and skills, and during the Iron Age, the inhabitants of Kazakhstan used blast furnaces and smelting techniques to extract iron from iron ore, which is mainly found in the mountainous and steppe areas of the territory of Kazakhstan.
The inhabitants of Kazakhstan use stoves to heat iron ore, convert iron ore into iron blocks, these iron blocks can be hammered and heated, can be made into various daily necessities, such as pots, knives, spears, arrows, harnesses, etc., the use of iron has had a profound impact on the life and economy of Kazakhstan, for example, the emergence of pots and other kitchenware has made people better cook and preserve food, thereby improving the quality of people's life, while the appearance of spears and arrows has also increased the efficiency of hunting and fighting, Economic and cultural development was promoted.

People in the Iron Age of Kazakhstan used iron tableware and utensils, such as bowls, plates, knives and forks, pots, cups, etc., the production of these utensils requires certain technology and technology, first need to select the appropriate iron ore for smelting and purification, and then smelt iron ore into iron blocks, and then use hammers and molds to forge iron pieces into the desired shape, in this process, blacksmiths need to master certain heat and forging techniques to ensure the quality and strength of products.
People in the Iron Age of Kazakhstan also use iron agricultural tools, such as hoes, sickles, plows, etc., the production of these agricultural tools also requires certain technology and technology, first need to select the appropriate iron ore for smelting and purification, and then smelt iron ore into iron blocks, and then use hammers and molds to forge iron blocks into the desired shape, in this process, blacksmiths need to design different shapes and sizes according to different agricultural tool functions and uses to ensure the efficiency and stability of agricultural tools.
People in the iron age of Kazakhstan use iron lamps, such as lanterns, oil lamps, candlesticks, etc., the production of these lamps also requires certain technology and technology, first need to select the appropriate iron ore for smelting and purification, and then smelt iron ore into iron blocks, and then use hammers and molds to forge iron blocks into the desired shape, in this process, blacksmiths need to consider the use environment and safety of lamps, design different shapes and structures to ensure the stability and durability of lamps.

Iron Age Kazakhstan people can not only produce a variety of iron products, but also be able to repair and maintain iron products, iron tools in the process of use will inevitably appear wear, cracks and other problems, blacksmiths can repair iron products through grinding, welding, reinforcement and other means, at the same time, they can also maintain iron products, such as applying rust inhibitors, storing in dry and ventilated places, etc., to extend the service life of iron products.
conclusion
Kazakhstan iron age people to make daily necessities methods and technology is very rich, need blacksmiths to master a certain smelting, forging, grinding, welding and other technologies and processes, these daily necessities in Kazakhstan society at that time played an important role, not only can meet people's daily needs, but also can reflect the culture, aesthetics and technical level of the Kazakh people at that time.
