It might have been me, when I did the HW conversion http://www.glorantha.com/hw/applelane_characters.html

"(Third Eye Blue are a sorcerous people, although not Orthodox Malkioni. They stole the secret of working all kinds of metals from the Mostali. These abilities are held in the Grimoire "The Secrets of the Metal" and are keyed to the Smiths tattooed 3rd Eye. Spells are similar to those in Gustbran's "Bronze" affinity, but there are spells for all types of metal.
Piku also knows the Grimoire "The Secrets of the Forge", from which he summoned the creature that pumps his bellows. His Pommel shaping song is a stand alone spell)"

As I recall, I determined they were Sorcerors by asking on the Digest what people knew about 3EB and made the rest up...
