An iron [[Ferring]] is known as a '''Skimmer'''. Iron is used to store physical mass, or more accurately, density.<ref name="AoLAA" /> This is accomplished by changing the Feruchemist's mass, not by by changing the effect of gravity on the Feruchemist. This change does not affect things that the Feruchemist wears, but is great enough that a Feruchemist storing weight can safely fall any distance, as the Feruchemist's surface area is sufficient to slow the fall to safe speeds.<ref>Mistborn II, Ch. 12</ref>
