I really like Forged in Fire. The creativity of some of the makers is astounding. I like making stuff and the show is about making stuff. The weapons aspect is kind of cool too. Since I have been watching the show metal is starting to show up in some of my work.
I watch every episode. I have 4 swords handcrafted by a guy on the eastern shore by the name of Charles Bowie. Can't find him on the internet by any search I come up with. They are excellent examples of the forging art. You Tennesseans know of anyone who makes scabbards?

I watch it every week, I've made purchases from some of the contestants, I have quite a sword collection. I am going to have someone forge a suit of plate mail.
Yeah, it was a strange episode, for sure. Nothing seemed to go right for anyone except the eventual winner. His work looked nice at the end, but he never impressed me like other winners have.
Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.
Watch it all the time now. Never knew there were so many types of swords or knives. These people are really talented with what they create out of raw steel. I just wonder what they do with all the blades that get surrendered.

A co-worker actually purchased a War Hammer made on one of the shows and used it for hunting Boar.
Way above my skill level
