Mythrite Culinary Knife

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Mythrite Culinary Knife is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 6 intermediates — Mythrite Ingot ×2, Basilisk Whetstone ×1, Holy Cedar Lumber ×1 and 3 others — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 30 units, plus 33 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,368 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,196 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 26 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Fire Crystal, 6 Wind Crystal, 5 Wind Shard and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 53, Alchemist to Lv 52, Carpenter to Lv 52 and Goldsmith to Lv 40 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 7 raw materials are gathered, and one of them is time-gated: Dravanian Mistletoe (0:00, 12:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Mythrite Nugget has the widest use: 102 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
