A question regarding crafted items and Wrath.

My prot warrior has weaponsmithing now (completely unused however), would you suggest I drop it for armorsmithing, in preparation of wrath?

Back when I was primarily fury, I dumped a significant amount of money into maxing out my blacksmithing to get myself those spiffy 1 handed axes. Then they nerfed the graphic (the flame no longer leaves a trial, so it went from awesome to just another weapon + flame graphic). Then they introduced the new isle badge vendors and the 1 handed fist weapons there completely obsoleted my weapons. I banked my axe and have since not bothered.

It's been so long since this change (the patch that introduced the isle), that I'm pretty settled into prot now and with how amazingly awesome prot has been in beta and even the ptr, I'm pretty confident I'm staying prot to level and pvp and on. Would you suggest I change over to armorsmith now, while I'm not occupied with other things (like leveling in wrath) or should I hold out in case they introduce badass tanking weapons for weaponsmithing?
