    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.

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

    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 tried to watch last night but it kept buffering, the WiFi at the AIRBNB here in Oahu is sloooow, but it looks like a great show, I'll watch at home.

    I watch it every week, I've made purchases from some of the contestants, I have quite a sword collection.

    I love the craftsmanship, creativity, problem solving, etc.  It's fun to watch with my son.  We're always looking at stuff and saying "it will kill."

    I caught one episode and it has a Chopped type format. Those guys are really skilled.

    The last episode was a big bust.

    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.

    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.

    My buddy Ryan was on this season. We used to blow glass together at Jacksonville University and he has picked up welding and blacksmithing recently.

    LoL. I have no idea where he picked that shirt up at. His name is Ryan Rowe and he was on season 4 Episode 9 "The Charay".

    The name embroidered on his shirt. I was making a joke :)
