Recipes are a good idea for when you're alchemizing, but come on, do you really NEED the recipes? I mean, there should be a "Try Your Luck" button, which lets you put the neccesary materials you need to ake the item you want without the recipe.
NO MORE RECIPES!!!

"'Try Your Luck' button, which lets you put the [necessary] materials you need to [make] the item you want without the recipe"
In context to the game, your character reads and learns from the recipe to make a Thwack Hammer. To 'try your luck' would be slapping any material together to get it to look like a Thwack Hammer. Without the recipe to go by your character doesn't know what materials it needs.
But there is something off about your suggestion. Why should it happen.
"do you really NEED the recipes?"
You ask the forums, but status quo says yes. Why should we change it so now you can avoid the 25k for the barbarous thorn shield and just make it with only the 5k of alchemizing cost. If the reason is that "some recipes are rare, therefore we should do without", then perhaps there was a reason they were made that way. If you prove that that decision to keep boss-token recipes to random cyclings of the clockworks' basil, to be flawed or wrong; you'll have a case!
If the reason was more that "recipes are expensive", then maybe there was a reason for that too. Maybe alchemy is set up to be both a crown and energy sink, to remove them from the market and attempt to keep the economy in balance, (emphasis on attempt).
Not putting a 'why' to a suggestion removes the reason to add said suggestion.

No.Just No.Removing recipes
No.Just No.Removing recipes would completely ruin the game.Mass chaos would ensue,disrupting the balance and causing the apocalypse.First, the core would malfunction.This would lead to a complete stop to the normal functions of Cradle.This would then disrupt the balance.The monsters would likely use this opportunity to escape from the clockworks and descend upon Haven.Riots would occur as angry knights get angry for the attacks and the malfunctions.The gremlins would then break to the surface.Wave after wave of gremlins would hit Haven.A huge war would erupt in Haven.Slimes fighting knights fighting gremlins fighting undead fighting fiends fighting beasts fighting constructs would completely destroy Haven.Then comes the Swarm.The Swarm would take out every remaining knight who is still standing.Hundreds of thousands of innocent knights would be killed.Now do you really want that?Do You???

If I read the original post correctly you are suggesting something similar to the no recipe freelance craft option in TF2 where all you need to make something is the materials without knowing the recipe.
The recipe costs money to obtain. Materials for these items are not particularly difficult to obtain.
You are suggesting we no longer use recipes to craft, rather read the Wiki and input all the items without paying for a recipe.
No.
