Usually, that would be the task of a locksmith. A locksmith would of course be involved in the creation of locks but also would be most qualified to make the accompanying keys (due to their specialist skills). A blacksmith would at best only be able to replicate existing keys for locks.

Blacksmith's made anything metal. For the poorest peasant up to the grandest king, they made things for them. Nails, swords, daggers, utensils, kitchen supplies, etc. Because there were few of them, they did a lot of work but were favoured and respected. They also made very comfortable livings as one of the top guilds, mostly in cities during the Renaissance. They also had protection, because knights wouldn't be able to armor themselves with swords if their blacksmith was caught prisoner or killed.

The amount of money that a blacksmith was paid in 1790 depended on the piece they made. On average, they made anywhere between $0.25 to $50.00 depending on the work done.

Many of the methods of working with hot iron on an anvil are easier with two hands. That being said the key to being a good blacksmith is in being able to judge how hot the metal is by the colour of it. A one handed person could do this just as well as any two handed person. There are jigs and methods to hold hot steel that don't require you to use you hands. Like any good blacksmith you will make tools that enable you to do your work better and more effiently.

Horses and wagons could not have operated without blacksmiths. Blacksmiths did all the necessary repairs.

Once the Railroad Company at Baltimore and Ohio began to hurt due to the depression, wages were cut by 10% causing the Railroad Strike of 1877 to occur, preventing the flow of trains. This was the beginning of the formation of Labor Unions, and showed the power of employers. It also increased the public awareness of the grievances of railroad workers. This was the first strike that needed government intervention, which was sent by President Hayes to end it. As a result, the company passes Employees' Relief Association, which covered such things as sickness, injury from accident, and a death benefit. The company also became the first to offer a pension plan in 1884.
This may have been little success towards the Labor Unions, but such things as Homestead strike of 1892 proved there was little success. This strike started when Henry Clay Frick cut wages by 22% at the Carnegie Steel Plant. This then lead to a five-month lockout on June 30, 1892 in attempt of management defeating steelworkers. Scabs were used by the Carnegie Steel Company in order to keep the plant running, and ruin the chance of the Labor Unions gaining a victory. This strike may have been very violent, but it was well organized. Overall, this strike was unsuccessful for the Labor Unions because the workers were taken out of the steel plants. For the ones who went back to work, they were forced to sign a Yellow Dog Contract. Workers agreeing to not join Labor Unions used this contract to prevent the formation of Unions. If they got caught, they would be blacklisted and their names would be given to employers, enabling it hard for those workers to seek employment again. This prevented workers from joining Labor Unions.
As wages were being cut in other companies such as the Pullman Company, workers were beginning to become perturbed. Employees worked with Eugene Debs in the American Railroad Union, and launched a boycott, which resulted in a lockout. They also directed railroad workers to not handle any trains with Pullman cars. Railroad owners supported Pullman, and linked mail trains to Pullman cars. Federal Court then stepped in created the court case known as In re Debs. This case gave the government the right to regulate interstate commerce, and ensue actions of the Postal Service. It also gave the Federal Government power to break strikes. The government then got involved, and ended the strike giving employers a very powerful weapon to break unions.

The tools called a hammer and an anvil would be found in a blacksmith's shop.

The bones called the hammer and the anvil are found in the middle ear.

That is called an ANVIL and most blacksmiths would have had at least 3 of them.

Basically farmers have to plant lot of trees at the boundary of their field (specially neem trees).its roots will hold the soil properly and prevent its erosion.

There are two major causes of erosion, wind and water. While wind erosion is fairly well addressed by windbreaks, reducing water caused erosion requires leaving land covered. The impact of rain drops is the primary caused of soil particle detachment. Leaving crop residue on the surface breaks this impact. Cover crops also help by providing cover and feeding soil life. In healthy soils microbes add naturally sticky substances that help improve the stability of soils; they glue the particles together. The best way to get both the residue coverage and microbial glues is to totally eliminate tillage of the soil. Called no till agriculture, this system plants through crop residues with minimal disturbance. As soil health improves, the soils are able to absorb more water, further reducing erosion.

No... blacksmiths work with metal....

Yes. They also make weapons and bits.

All trades depended on the blacksmith. One surprising trade that depended on the blacksmith is the milliner, but the milliner needed a manikin and a post to stabilize the manikin. That came from the blacksmith!
